Title: Fox Sports: Henry Ellenson #31 on top 50 college players

31. Henry Ellenson, freshman forward/center, Marquette. The near-7-footer is the jewel of Steve Wojciechowski’s recruiting class. He’s built like a brick house, with wide shoulders and a tough physique, yet he’s incredibly skilled, as we saw in his Team USA exploits during the FIBA World Championships. He’s great down low and great around the perimeter. That’s why, when DraftExpress.com floats a comparison to Kevin Love, it rings true.

He may be more mobile than Kevin Love.    Maybe Danny Manning?   Pre-debilitating knee surgeries.     As long as he doesn't turn out to be Brad Sellers.

Sellers was weak student at UW.  Poor academics is what drove him out.  In the modern world you just turn pro.

The article to the immediate right of this brought back some bad memories.

Sellers was a first rounder that ultimately was traded for the pick that became BJ Armstrong. Not too shabby.

Reaching back 30+ years on the "academically superior" card!  Bravo! 

It's actually like the MU03ENG(?)  "Marquette football!  Undefeated since 1960!" sign.  It was as inaccurately pompous then as it is now.  But the MU football sign was funny.
