Is Wally getting Woj bombed?

Let's set the scene.

Marquette has 0 scholarships left to give for the 2016-'17 season with the additions of Markus Howard and Katin Reinhardt last week.

Marquette has very little size on its roster, with only two players (Luke Fischer and Matt Heldt) sitting 6-foot-8 or taller.

Marquette is actively recruiting at least two 2016 players (grad transfer LG Gill and high school recruit Kalif Young), with both set to take official visits next weekend. Gill is not a prototypical power forward, but has size at 6-foot-8 and is being recruited by Texas, Maryland and Iowa State. Young is a more typical "4" at 6-foot-9, 265 pounds and has Providence and Alabama as the other two suitors.

All three points are indisputable facts, not conjecture. Add them all up and what do you get? Somebody currently on the roster won't be in the not-too-distant future. Big East Coast Bias did a good job of going through the suspects.

But guessing which player will be forced out without any knowledge is disparaging to the players involved and not really conducive to accuracy.

Enter Twitter.

FAMILY ALWAYS FIRST

— Henry Ellenson (@HenryEllenson13) April 18, 2016

On its own, this is meaningless and speculating on what cryptic message this conveys would be a waste of time.

But guess who retweeted it?

Ok, that's still innocuous enough, Wally is obviously family and those emojis are the 2016 version of saying Amen.

But this is the kicker. Guess which pair of brothers unfollowed Steve Wojciechowski on Twitter? Winner winner, the Ellenson bros. They both still follow all of their Marquette teammates, other coaches and even the school itself. They both used to follow Woj, but no longer do so.

Mom and Pop Ellenson also curiously stopped following Woj.

Things that make you go hmm indeed. Still not convinced? They all unfollowed the Marquette Basketball Twitter account as well.

I can't point with any certainty when this occurred, but as of 10:40 PM Cleveland time on April 20, this was the case. Whether all this is right and what implications it may have going forward, that's for a different day.

For now, all signs point to Wally being Woj bombed.

In other news, the US pulled out of Saigon....

[WarriorInNYC]

Interesting why that was posted here today....the article itself was posted on PT's website back in April.

[avid1010]

pathetic.  i've seen plenty of people on this site state exactly what happened in this situation...based upon previous information shared on scoop. 

[wadesworld]

He gowne.

The article is from April 20th.

Still hoping the scholarship goes to use for a top notch mid season transfer.

[Silkk the Shaka]

someone at PT made a retroactive change to the article and an RSS feed picked it up as a brand new article perhaps?

WHAT ARE THEY HIDING??

[PaintTouches]

Hmm..this is WordPress' way to remind me to pay the domain fee. Haven't even visited the site this month. (Shame abounds).

Though the fact peeps reacted without checking the date is the best.

[Newsdreams]

It had been happening previously including Matt Velazquez's articles. Obviously mods have been pocketing all the fees we pay not doing their work!!!

Why post this now? This is done and over. If you didn't know about this before today you're just a bad scooper

I agree with this analysis.

I'm trying to find Chico's perspective on HB2.....did something happen to the Politics board?  or to Chico's for that matter?

What's with Wally calling himself the "kangaroo Kid"?

There was only one and he was a thousand times the player that Wally ever was or is.
