Title: Fun Region 3 vs 14
Post by: mu03eng on May 20, 2015, 03:23:02 PM: Username + Critical Recruit

This meme got started in the days leading up to Henry Ellenson's announcement of where he would be taking his talents. In the frenzy of Scoop angst, someone started the trend of changing their username to include Ellenson in it. Can't find who, but like any good brushfire it quietly ignited a raging firestorm of name changes until almost the entire board was consumed. Has now continued Damion Lee.

Vatican Smoke

This meme came into popularity during the Buzz Williams escape to the backwoods of Virginia drama. Playing off the smoke seen when selecting a pope, pictures started popping up in threads every time a "source" declared this or that. It likely gained traction as it was one of the first picture memes in Scoop, plus MU is like Catholic or something. Many posters contributed to the growth of the meme so I'm sure Bleuteaux wasn't the first, but his was the first I could find and ultimately I'm lazy so....all hail meme creator Bleuteaux.

I don't even know how it got into the tournament. It had a lackluster season, and required a couple controversial foul calls to win it's low-major conference tourney. #thisthingisrigged
