What is somewhat shocking is that Benson was an average guy, so average that even his family thought he would not amount to much.
The transformation happened when he worked for someone with real leadership and drive. Benson absorb every ounce of it. That style though was not transferable to the success of the Saints. Some stories I read, he would bench players getting close to financial earmarks in their contract. Can't do that stuff and expect to win. |
