Wally Ellenson Transferring to MU and Playing Basketball

[GGGG]

Apparently Heisenberg didn't get his advice to him in time.

Come on down and join your brother, Henry.

[Nukem2]

OK, Henry, your table has been set... 

[MU82]

Verrrrrrrrrrrry interesting!

As for Heisenberg's "advice": People live how they want to live. Maybe the kid gets great joy out of playing basketball -- and, especially, out of playing on the same college basketball team as his brother!

Does the family have money? If so, they can hire Wally a private high-jump coach if that matters enough to him.

Regardless of his motive, I'm glad he's making MU Wally World.

Next ... O Henry!

[NersEllenson]

Come on down and join your brother, Henry.

I like our chances even more on Henry...potentially a Five Star recruit in Wojo's first season on the job?  Wow.

[mukaiser]

Did someone say WOJO couldn't recruit?  Maybe he knows what he's doing.

[4everwarriors]

Solid!

Wojo has made a huge impression on that family since he took over. This is a big deal.

[frozena pizza]

Wow this is huge!  I absolutely refuse to think this means we have Henry locked up or anything is a #donedeal because I don't want to get burned.  But...wow.

[4everwarriors]

What's so cool is WoJo didn't just stand still holdin' his johnson once it became obvious the Stone ship had left the dock. Steve is out there pissin' with the big boys in unchartered waters.

[Goose]

Heard this yesterday and feel good about brother combo coming to MU.

[The Lens]

Can anyone break down Wally's game? 

[4everwarriors]

He's not quite Dwight Stone, but close.

[GGGG]

Also remember that Wally was hurt for the first portion of his freshman year and that he left the program just a few games into his sophomore year.  He might very well be a strong contributor in his own right regardless of Henry.

[The Lens]

He's not quite Dwight Stone, but close.

I find it amusing that yesterday everyone was worried about offending Heldt by questioning his credentials but today we're celebrating Wally's signing as simply step one in getting his brother.  Kid's got feelings too!

Scorecard thus far for Steve Wojciechowski ... transfers Matt Carlino, Gabe Levin and Wally Ellenson. 2015 Matt Heldt, Nick Noskowiak.

[T-Bone]

What about Ellwood?  Bring the whole family.

I'm blown away. Steve is absolutely crushing it given the timing of his hire and what he's been able to do in a short period of time.

[Earl Tatum]

Billed as a good shooter, with good size (6-6, 210) and great leaping ability. But could never translate
his talent into productive minutes at Minnesota. Hopefully, he can mold these talents and be productive at MU.
I Like It.

[Tugg Speedman]

I'm shocked ... Jordan picks baseball over basketball.

It's pretty clear to me that Wojo keeps Mark Miller informed.  I really like Mark's 247 crystal ball.
