Henry Ellenson

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Can't think of a finer cause and Scoop movement to support.  Great idea EllensonChili83.

Probably my favorite scoop movement. I've had a good chuckle at some of the names.

Count me in!

Anymore room on that wagon?  I just had a movement!

Let's hope Henry wants to keep being a Warrior!

More of a lurker than a poster, but it's time for me to do my part.

Positive Ellenson thought of the day. We are worried that Izzo is going to blow Ellenson away in East Lansing this weekend and he will slip through our fingers. Izzo hasn't exactly done the best job of recruiting in the past few years. He's obviously a brand name coach, but for whatever reason has been unable to land major talent in the last two years.

In 2013, Izzo brought in a class of three three stars (one of whom transferred to Ohio) that was good enough to crack the list of top 70 recruiting classes. In his 2014 class, he brought in a 4 star and 2 3 stars and turned in a class that couldn't crack the the list of top 50 recruiting classes.

Izzo is off to a good start this season with a 4 star and a 3 star already signed (currently a top 25 but not top 20 class). Maybe his struggles will continue. I don't know why it's been a struggle, Izzo has all the tools that the other big boys have. Maybe he's losing his touch? Maybe he can't connect to the latest generation of recruits? Or maybe sh*t happens and Izzo will bounce back hard.

These things are cyclical. Even if he's had a couple weak classes, it won't stay that way forever.

I can dig it.

As I said, I simply need to stop engaging with guys who have no idea about playing the game other than on XBox/Playstation - of course you being one of them.  There was plenty of evidence Buzz sucked last year.  And I've presented plenty of facts to back that fact up, along with the other couple of reasons why the team was awful last year. Guys like you point to Jamil and Davante not showing "leadership," as the reason the team struggled.  We had another idiot here who eventually had to leave the board, who offered up the genius analysis in my signature.  

What is sad is that despite having ample evidence of being wrong all of last season, you and the handful of others simply can't acknowledge how flawed your position was last year.  17-15.  Missed the NIT.  IN a season we were predicted to WIN THe Big East, and returned more experience than ever before in Buzz's tenure.

And that shows all the maturity of a 4 year old.

Plenty of examples of high caliber athletes (of which you apparently are??)  who aren't successful as GM or coach ( a group you apparently belong to).

Does this stick when he selects the blue & gold?

No. Then we all switch to some other underaged kid that we covet.

Don't worry, it's cool.

Scoop's version of the ice bucket challenge. It's all about raising awareness!

I'm in.

When I was a student, I was MUMotivAsian ("motivation"), then I became LLRj Since 1986 (when I was born)

I apologize if this is similar to someone else's name...I haven't bothered going through all the threads, but this is my contribution to the cause.

[Let's Go Warriors]

So about this Ellenson Thing...

Can Wally go along on his recruiting trips? Or are family members not allowed?

The good news is that Izzo can be out recruited as not all kids take to his desire for Lunch Bucket mentality. The bad news is he and the Spartans are  always there at the end.  I think he will be selling Henry that they don't have very many big's on the roster.  Ordinarily I am not on the side of the younger is better approach, but in this case Wojo is more attuned to the young kids.

If we don't get Ellenson, it's my fault you guys. I was too overconfident about it at the bar. My bad.

There's still time to redeem yourself by adding Ellenson to your username.

I think you've got that all wrong.
