Henry Ellenson

[Coleman]

Some of you take things so literally..

Few guys are what might be reasonably called "almost certain one and done's." If Izzo brings in great talent, but the guy has an unreal year and has info that he could be drafted in the lottery and leaves... is that a bad thing?

I believe Izzo and others may be of the mindset that they aren't very interesting in bringing in a kid who is (1) stating he only wants to be in school for a year and (2) has the ability to make that come true. But that's a very select few.

I agree with this. No one could have predicted D Wade would only play two seasons at MU. But just because MU doesn't seek out those types of guys doesn't mean it can't and won't happen again

I don't know if I agree with this 100%.  Crean was touting Wade as NBA ready during his partial-qualifying year.  I remember that he would always say he had a guy at the end of his bench who could play in the NBA right now.  I would say that if MU hadn't lost first round and we made a good run (elite 8), Wade would have gone pro.  I think there was always a feeling, at least with Crean, that Wade wouldn't be there 4 years.

So does Caleb Swanigan

I disagree on Swanigan having one and done potential.  That, of course, doesn't mean that he wouldn't try it, just that the NBA will make it clear to him that they much rather that he develop more.

Does anyone that has seen Henry play in-person care to add some insight about his game/potential?

Do you have access to ESPN3? They have the Team USA 2014 FIBA U-17 games on replay.

Hey... isn't that Sultan's stomping grounds?

She was going to make a pot for me.

The fact that I am going to be an a company mandated retreat in the woods with limited internet this weekend is probably healthy for me. Keeps me from checking updates on how Ellenson's trip to East Lansing is going.

[jaygall31]

I'm sure he'll enjoy it. Who wouldn't enjoy what Mich st has to offer.
It's all about what we do in a weeks time! excited and nervous!

I've been to East Lancing. It ain't exactly Malibu.

I agree.  Especially if you are from the country.  Its not like visiting an upscale downtown city.  Its a bit "dirty" for lack of a better word.
I would not worry about East Lansing being the deciding factor.

That said, I have also been to a Michigan v Michigan St game in East Lansing.  Very nice atmosphere.

Been all over the state of Michigan, the two worst cities, Detroit and East Lansing.

Grand Rapids, and the northern coast cities along lake michigan are very very nice.

MSU is playing Eastern Michigan and are 45 pt favorites.    There were still good seats available for the game as of yesterday.   Combined with thunderstorms in the area.   It would not surprise me if this were the worst attended Spartan game in years.   So, who knows?    It will come down to what kind of job Izzo does selling the kid on the Spartan mystique.  Vs. how Cal does vs. how Wojo does.   

My brother attended MSU, and I have fond memories of football Saturdays with him and his friends.

The bolded part is dead on. If a basketball recruit is going to make a decision based on how much fun he has at a visiting school's football game, he's probably not a good fit for anyone. A fun atmosphere makes selling the experience easier, but it's far from a top deciding factor. And East Lansing may not be Malibu, but the kid's clearly not making his decision on destination locations unless he's really drawn to the opportunity to pound a nail into a stump while crushing some German beers. I'm confident in the 24/7 picks. Izzo or Cal have a huge sell to make for a reversal.

Never been to Flint uh? And Detroit is a great city if you know what you're doing there.

I'm scrolling threw pictures of Malibu and im in shock. What an amazing city. Modern houses right in the beach. Mountain vistas in the back round wow. East Lansing is certainly no Malibu, but Malibu is still no Milwaukee!
