Finished second in Pac-12 history with a career 3.23-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio ... 2017 Picked up where he left off last season with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 2.2-to-1

I can see him getting up to 4-1. If he averaged 3.23 in the Pac12, who is a lot more athletic, and significantly more length than the WAC and pair it up with the atrocious OOC schedule GCU put together I say it's realistic.

He is also not going to have that talent around him like he had at Oregon. He will get a reality check come this fall.

Very true, there is not as much defensive opposition in the WAC as in the PAC 12... but also there is not as much talent on the GCU team surrounding Benson as there was at Oregon. Threading passes to Vernon in the paint might prove to be more difficult than getting the ball to players like Brooks, Dorsey, or Boucher at Oregon. Also, keep in mind, even with all the talent at Oregon, Benson never produce more than a 3 assist per game average in any of his three season there. The other component of an assist is his teammates must make shot when fed the ball. I can see Benson being about as efficient a passer as Wrapp but not much more.
