Trentyn and his family were in my view the whole game. Him and his dad were fully engaged the whole game. They looked like fans as we were making big plays. My hopes are up.

Have we had a 5 star since Benoit? (Not that anyone can remember if there were actual ratings back then)

Benoit was a Burger Boy. He was a 5 star before there were 5 stars. Silas was a high school AA as well out of the Bay Area.

(Legend: Burger Boy = McDonalds All American game).

How did we end up getting Benoit? We’re there rankings back then?

Considered by many scouts to be the top prospect in the country, Benjamin was sought by 350 colleges. Again he looked for a father figure, preferably a college coach who had played center. Though the best-known man with such qualifications, Georgetown's John Thompson, visited Monroe several times, Benoit and his mother chose another Louisianian—Reed, who grew up in nearby Bernice. It also helped that Reed had graduated from Carolyn's alma mater, Grambling, and had captained the New York Knicks to two NBA championships. "Playing for the best wasn't an incentive," says Benjamin. "It was the incentive."
