Ben Linnemeyer brings size, playmaking, and high-upside versatility
Linnemeyer is a 6-6 guard who profiles as a versatile, team-first connector rather than a volume scorer: Tennessee lists him as a redshirt freshman who did not compete in 2024-25, but his prep resume was strong, with 14.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 4.0 assists per game at Link Academy while shooting 90% at the line. He also showed athletic development in Knoxville, reportedly adding 10 pounds and improving his vertical jump, which suggests upside for a bigger, more physical guard role. [14]
