I still don't think he's going to play much. In fact, Ben just might be using his son to motivate a couple guys

One of Fran’s tournament teams lost to Augustana in an exhibition team. The game the other day was meaningless.

Love it. Ben will play the guy major minutes all season if that's what it takes.

That ending up probably being Fran's 3rd best Iowa team

yeah, his other son and his daughter

The entire point is that every single fucking second Lil' Peyton is on the court, that means a 4* highly ranked player that we are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars per year is rotting away on the bench.

His kid is a fucking walk-on. I don't care that he has a scholarship, that is a weird glitch in the system of NIL era. He's a walk-on and wouldn't have been at any other D1 school on scholarship.

That's the whole point, another coach that can't help but play his beloved son at the University of Iowa. It's a fucking disease.
