Can't wait!

I miss seeing Ben, I love his fire. The way he's able to scheme for teams is a thing of beauty. Can't wait to see what he does with McKeever in the paint.

I was at Iowa when Hayden and Lute were there. What a glorious time. Rose Bowl. Final Four and wrestling owned the world. So excited Ben is there. He is our guy.
