Posters over on Scout are mentioning that PC will be flying out of Newark following a practice (which Rothstein attended)...and that PC and Bentil may be on the bus back to Providence following the team's practice (?). In any event, here is a link to what Jon R has to say before he undoubtedly heads off for some "Off the Charts" eating.... twitter.com/JonRothstein |

More on Bentil from J.R. courtesy of CBS Sports... 3. Providence's Ben Bentil will be in the mix for Big East Rookie of the Year The 6-9 power forward is built like an adonis and should have an immediate impact for the Friars. Ed Cooley has to replace some of the shot making he lost after last season with the departures of Bryce Cotton, Josh Fortune and Kadeem Batts, and Bentil should be more than able to help fill some of that void. The Delaware native has a potent pick-and-pop game to go with his relentless motor and looks more like a body builder than a basketball player. Expect Cooley to close out games with Bentil and LaDontae Henton in the front court during the upcoming year for Providence, which should be picked somewhere in the middle of the Big East's preseason poll. Bentil will be one of the better first-year players in the conference along with Seton Hall's Isaiah Whitehead and Xavier's Trevon Blueitt www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/eye-on-college-basketball/24661331/observations-poythress-already-showing-signs-of-a-breakout-season |

Agree with all said about Bentil,except we are all aware that he is not a Delaware native.
