First round I ever played in my life was with Ben at the old Denham Springs country club. I was probably about 11 or 12, he was a good golfer and tried to teach me but I was pretty uncoachable back then lol.

One of the best basketball players in the state as a center.

but I think one year just about all of the team caught the flu and we almost didn’t have enough players to field a team and he stepped up, obviously played in hs
That was when Dale was able to poach a few guys from the football team, namely Chris Carrier.

Denham Springs threw someone else not near as hard as Ben and we couldn't hit the junk and got beat.
That picture, Brad Meadors, was also undefeated that year.

. I love Ben, however, he sure does copy and paste his commentary quite a lot. He has repeated the same talking points all season, and usually multiple times within a game. And he says it almost the exact same way, every time.
He finds a way to make a Boobie Miles Friday Night Lights reference in every game

He definitely was, and played his freshman year.

In basketball at LSU, Big Ben played solid defense. He didn't do anything stupid on the court. He didn't have an outside shot, and he didn't really have any moves on offense, but he played smart.
He was solid, but certainly not spectacular.
