And the assistant is Brendan Mullins Bryan's older brother whom by the way was CCC choice to replace Billy Donlon on staff but turned it down to join his bro in Carbondale...ugh???
Oh GREAT!! Now coaches are turning down NU to go to SIU, too!! And for what reason?!?! Who would dare to want to turn down NU for their brother?!?!
Kidding. I just wanted to go along with the sky-is-falling vibe and continue to ignore the circumstances.
BB's choice MIGHT be concerning. It's worth a long-term look. But I'm surprised everybody puts so much credence in the logic of a 21-year-old.
In the end, the loss of these guys are not the problems and their three one-year replacements are nowhere near the solutions for the program. When most of your first eight (if any next year) rotation guys are not playing at a B10 replacement level, I'm sorry, but who cares who the bodies are for the 10th-12th scholarships. And maaaaaaaaaaybe, just maybe Benson MIGHT have improved to a B10 replacement level.
