Bishop of the Devil

Early the next morning, Richard drove off with Brownie. It was better to recruit the boss sooner rather than later.

Before Oakley had the idea of ​​persuading Ben to join Virginia Union University, Richard quickly settled the matter on Ben's side!

…

After a three-hour and forty-minute drive, Richard and the two finally arrived in Chuyahoga, Ohio.

Although there is no contact information for Da Ben, Da Ben is currently playing such terrible statistics in the college and is already a basketball star in the school. After asking a few people, Richard and the two found Da Ben easily.

At the Golden Arches fast food restaurant, when Richard saw a fierce-looking Ben serving French fries to customers, he couldn't help but feel weird...

Although the tuition fees at the community college where Da Ben studied were much lower than those at undergraduate universities, there were no scholarships at community colleges, and there was no accommodation on campus, so Da Ben had to work hard to support himself.

Ben was working. Richard did not rush up to disturb him. Instead, he found a seat in the golden arch and looked at Ben quietly.

The menacing Big Ben on the stadium in later generations, wearing an apron not much bigger than his bellyband, was frying French fries for the guests. This scene made Richard particularly interesting.

"Coach Li, is he the player you are looking for?" Brownie asked from the side.

"That's right, Brownie, his name is Ben Wallace. If everything goes well, he will become the most solid inside barrier for our team!" Richard nodded.

"What?! Insider? Just him?!" Little Brownie almost spit out the coke in his mouth.

As a student player manager, he has been dealing with players, so he naturally has a keen eye!

According to Little Brownie, the height of the big Ben in front of him is definitely not 205 centimeters, and may even be only a full two meters!

With such a height, he is definitely taller than ordinary people, but compared to those inside players on the court, he is definitely a dwarf.

Little Brownie felt that Richard might really be crazy. He drove for four hours just to find such a little man to come back and work as an inside line? !

"That's right, it's him! With him, and the criminal boy you call me, I'm confident of at least reaching the elite eight! No, I'm confident of winning the championship!" Richard's face was full of smiles.

Little Brownie was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide at Richard's words...

Elite eight? ! Win the championship? !

What a joke, last season the Boilermakers had a strong team, but under such circumstances, they were only at the elite eight level!

And now, in addition to losing the big dog Robinson, the team also has three senior main players graduating. Under such circumstances, how can the Elite Eight be possible? ! How is it possible to win the championship!

In Brownie's opinion, if Richard can lead the Boilermakers to the national championship this season, it will be a success!

…

After waiting for an hour and a half, it was finally time to finish work. He took off the apron that he wore like a bellyband and got ready to get off work.

"Man, we are the Purdue University basketball team. This is our head coach Richard. Do you have time to chat with us?" Little Brownie saw Ben getting ready to get off work and immediately greeted him.

Hearing that it was the Purdue University basketball team, Ben's eyes suddenly released a strange light!

The Purdue Boilermakers are a top NCAA team. Every team that can regularly enter the national tournament can be considered a strong team, not to mention that Purdue University also won a spot in the Elite Eight last season!

It goes without saying what the top teams can bring to the players. It brings higher popularity and attention, which is of great benefit to the players in participating in the draft in the future!

Big Ben followed Little Brownie to Richard without saying a word!

Richard laughed, the golden signboard of Purdue University is really useful...

In fact, Purdue University is not just a top team in the NCAA. Its academics are also among the top 100 in the United States, and the country is definitely no stranger to this university!

Deng Jiaxian, the father of the domestic atomic bomb, and Sun Liren, the famous anti-Japanese hero, are actually alumni of Purdue University.

"Sit down, Ben, let's have a good chat..." Richard calmly asked Ben to sit down.

Ben looked a little nervous. Although the skin color and age of the head coach in front of him surprised him, his identity as the head coach of Purdue University still made him sit upright in front of Richard.

"Ben, I'm going to get straight to the point, I want you, Purdue University wants you!" Richard tapped his fingertips on the table, looking at the insider monster in front of him with piercing eyes, forcing himself to suppress the emotion in his heart. said excitedly.

Daben was so shocked by these words that his face became dull.

Seeing Ben's expressionless face, Richard tapped his fingertips on the table more rapidly, feeling a little nervous in his heart, and continued.

“Come to me and I’ll give you a full scholarship!”

"The most important thing is, I promise you a future, and you will definitely be selected in the draft!"

After hearing Richard's straightforward words, Ben didn't react for a moment. After being stunned for a moment, his whole body began to tremble with excitement!

"Coach...Coach, are you telling the truth?" Ben excitedly grabbed Richard's hand.

"Yes, it's true, it's more real than real gold!" Richard smiled lightly, and Ben's attitude made him very satisfied.

My heart, which was a little tight at first, finally relaxed now...

He knows that his third All-Star player has basically been obtained!

Little Brownie on the side was actually more shocked than Big Ben, because Richard promised Big Ben a future, a future in the NBA!

He didn't know why Richard had the confidence to make such a promise, but he knew that there were no more than three coaches in the NCAA who dared to make such a promise to their players!

That's the NBA!

There are only sixty draft picks each year, and how many players does the NCAA have in a season? Tens of thousands!

Who can guarantee that his players will be selected? !

And this is when Richard has never watched any of Big Ben's games. How dare he make such a promise? !

For a moment, Little Brownie was stunned, becoming more and more confused about the calm Richard in front of him.

…

"But..." After the brief excitement, Daben immediately looked sad.

"But my grades were not good enough to transfer to a first-level league team. In fact, some first-level league teams approached me a few days ago, but because of the performance problem, they had no choice but to do it. In the end, it didn't happen. That’s it…”

After hearing what Ben said, Richard frowned, but he had forgotten about it.

Daben's grades are really bad. He is simply a bad student among bad students. It is basically impossible to transfer to a first-level league school through conventional channels.

With his habitual fingers tapping on the table, Richard was thinking about a solution to the problem.

Little Brownie recovered from the shock and whispered a reminder from the side.

"Coach Li, old Philip has a way around this matter, he should be able to solve it!"

Old Philip is a senior assistant coach. He has been an assistant coach in the school team for more than 20 years. He has a good knowledge of all kinds of skills here. If he takes action, this matter is quite reliable!

As for other first-level league teams, it's not that there's no way to solve the problem of big results, it's just that it's too troublesome!

The huge trouble makes them feel that the gain is not worth the loss. After all, no matter how good the data is, it is only produced in a community school. It is still unclear what will happen in the NCAA...

The most important thing is that Ben's skills are very rough, and those teams also discovered this when they came to inspect.

Richard slammed the table and said to Ben.

"Then the matter is settled. This is my number. Call me once a week and wait for my notification!"

When Ben heard that he had gotten the opportunity to join the top team in the NCAA, he was completely stunned...

He murmured: "Don't you need to check me out..."

"No! From today on, you Ben Wallace will follow me, Richard!"

Da Ben looked shocked, stood up in a hurry, and bowed ninety degrees to Richard.

"Coach Li, I... thank you..."
