Ben McCollum: “The benefit of me being at Division II is I’ve had the opportunity to work through positives and negatives. So I’ve made a lot of mistakes and we’ve done a lot of things right. And I didn’t have a lot of external noise while we were doing that. And then obviously we won a lot of games while we were making mistakes and while positives happened. Fast forward to this, that gives you a sense of confidence to build your roster because it’s like, we’ve built rosters. Obviously, this is the Big Ten – it is different. You need a little better player, a little bigger player, a little more physical player. But the attributes that you still want are still the same from a personality standpoint. Where you want tough kids, you want humble kids, you want guys that want to serve.”
