can this team play with both benson and pardon on the floor at the same time? High and low post passing could be very interesting, plus pulling two bigs out from down low could open up cutting lanes to the basket for our wings.

Anyone's thoughts?

Benson didn't play at all today, much less as Pardon's backup, so can't see a scenario in which they'd both be on the floor at the same time.

Right now, Skelly and Pardon play on the floor at the same time. My guess that it will happen as Benson developes, maybe next year or year after
 
Benson is raw. Give him time. Coach colllins will develop him. Upperclassmen are better than him at the moment

Pardon's my favorite player on the team, but I think both he and Benson would be stretched - in a bad way - if forced to spend much time in the high post. I wouldn't say it's an impossibility in the future, but I think Benson needs more time as a true five before he starts learning a new role.

The double-big thing is happening at Purdue right now, so maybe they get a few minutes together in three weeks.
