Right now it is just used as another clock that the teams can see. That's surprising that a small school would do that. Most fanbases from schools that size are always like "wE AlrEaDY HavE a ShOT clOcK, iT's 8 MinUtEs LonG!" I've never had a strong opinion one way or the other, but it's amazing how angry some people become over the idea of a shot clock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlboiler23 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Anyone here know anything about Jack Benter? Apparently he was at the Purdue game today and was curious what level of recruit he might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shot clock honestly would change the game up more and may actually have an adverse effect as much as the stall tactic. If a team isn’t initiating an offense just let the official give a five count and issue a warning to the coach followed by turnover or technical. As few times it happens we don’t need to radically change HS basketball over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently he was at the Purdue game today and was curious what level of recruit he might be. I've known Jack since he was born. When Jack was in 3rd grade he played up on a 5th grade AAU team and was the best player on most courts lol no lie. He's literally been shooting from the volleyball line since he was a 3rd grader. He is the son of a Hall of Fame coach, Dave Benter, who was national player of the year at Hanover. Jack is 6'4/6'5 right now and looks like a 6th grader. His dad was 5'10/5'11 as a FR in HS and was 6'4 when he graduated and grew to 6'7/6'8 in college and still had his guard skills. He had 31 points in the first half of a game last week along with hitting 9 3s. I think he is avg like 25p 6r 4a or something like that, currently. Painter will not have recruited a smarter player then Jack Benter. I have no idea if Jack ends up B1G material, literally no clue. You won't beat him in a game of horse though lol This video is from the second game of his HS career vs our county rival. He had 29 in that game. When I say the kid has unlimited range, the kid has UNLIMITED range. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 Jack shot 44% from 3 as a FR on a HUGE volume of shots. I'd put him up against anyone in the state shooting the basketball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense, but I'm not going to answer that question publicly. Jack is a great kid and I've worked under Coach Benter and I obviously played for him, as well. I assume they wouldn't like me divulging as much as I have. They are A+ people though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted February 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 I watched a good one on TV last night. Penn @ South Bend Washington. The Kingsmen pulled it out. Definitely some DI talent in the game. https://www.southbendtribune.com/story/sports/2022/02/11/penn-washington-high-school-basketball-scores-ihsaa-boys-schedule/6759040001/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw where you said Hall of Fame coach but wasn't sure he was still current. I did not grab a program so that's my fault. I was just curious as they pulled away from Washington in the 2nd half and Jack made a couple "relaxed" plays and coach rode him pretty hard even with a comfortable lead. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was also an interesting development in the conference this past weekend. A 6'7 FR from Scottsburg (Colby Hall) and a FR guard (Chance Coomer) both transferred to Brownstown. Colby Hall, I'm told, is a legitimate D1 kid. Obviously, he is tall, but he has a lot of skill and shooting ability for being so tall. Anyways.. big, big development down this way.
