[wadesworld]

Of course the sun shines on a dog's ass once in a while.

And he enrolled in 2018.

Dodds posted this.   Stevens Point vs Champlin Park.   High school highlights of Joey, Sam, and Theo.    Mostly Sam.    But Joey as a soph was matched up against Theo.   

1. Sam did not treat Theo well throughout that game, except for one or two possessions where the opposite was true.
2. I didn't recall that JP Macura played for SPASH.  (Number 20)

It also tells me how comfortable the Hausers are with Wojo.  The Hauser's are the quintessential Wisconsin HS sports family.  Having them in our corner can go a long way.  We all joke about Hiroshima / SLU here...but Badger Hiroshima / SLU may have been the day Bo asked Sam to wait.

Hope that massage was a good one.

What a difference from the Ellensons.

What a difference from the Ellensons.

The Ellensons were the ultimate millennial/helicopter parents. While you had to take Henry Ellenson, I will argue for years to come the Henry set back the rebuild program by at least a year.

But it's all smoke and mirrors, hey?

Even if that's true (and I don't think it is), landing a McD's AA and putting him in the NBA after a year is worth way more in future recruiting/program building dividends, especially at that point in Wojo's tenure.

Hindsight is 20/20 if Belmont and Depaul don't beat us in the closing seconds then we're all saying Henry put that team on his back and carried us to the tournament and it was definitely worth it.

I'm not saying we shouldn't have taken him, but in reality we could have had the current season last season if we didn't have Ellenson. Not saying that's reason not to take him but the combination of overhype and roster turnover put us behind the power curve of a rebuild in the outlying years from Ellenson.

I mean...last season wasn't all bad. 

[brewcity77]

He is the very same poster pushing the hardest on the "Herro's academics weren't good enough to get in" canard.  Whatever lies you need to tell yourself I guess.

Might be the biggest joke among UW posters, and that's really saying something. Blocked me on Twitter recently because I called him out on some stupidity. The guy really doesn't seem to know anything about UW sports or basketball in general.

[Stretchdeltsig]

Has anybody thought about the outrageous high scoring of next year's team with the addition of lights out shooters Joey and Brendon. We will see scores in the 100s commonly.  Yahoo!

Not saying it was, but last year could have been better if we had less youth which the Ellenson one and done forced last year to be.

Landing Ellenson gave Wojo and MU credibility.  It was well worth it.

Where's the evidence that both are "lights out" shooters?

[KampusFoods]

This is a myth, IMO. We had 4 seniors and a junior (4th year) that logged significant minutes. Sure we played 2 freshmen a bunch but those guys are studs. We really were not that young at all.

I literally think about it most of my waking moments

Ellenson one and done became Reinhardt so we actually got older quicker.

And the day Wojo's fortunes changed to the positive.  One decision impacted the differing trajectories of the two programs significantly.

This sounds like the plot of a made-for-TV movie:

All About Sam

The first 15 minutes goes into exactly what happened: Bo telling Sam to wait, Sam going to Marquette, and all that followed during Sam's freshman year.

The next 15 minutes tells how a freshman Sam helped the Badgers.

The next 15 minutes advances the story, with Sam now a sophomore and Marquette getting the commitment from Joey.

The next 15 minutes advances the Sam-to-UW story, with Joey following him there.

Etc, etc., until Sam caps his senior season (and Joey's soph campaign) by cutting down the nets at the Final Four while wearing Marquette blue and gold.

Flash to the Grinch drooling on himself and muttering, "The massage wasn't worth it! The massage wasn't worth it!"

I'd like to thank my great cast and crew, my talented director, my lovely wife, and all the little people who believed in me!

This semester, Joey is only taking the easy classes.

Bailey might not be lights out. He shot a percentage in the low 30s from 3 in high school

Do we think those two as wins take us from a non-NIT team to a NCAA tournament team?  I don't.

He enrolled at UNC?

[Galway Eagle]

Objectively speaking do you think a 22-11 team tied for 6th in the BE with 4 wins against NCAA teams and 2 decent wins against NIT teams gets left out? I don't

 we'll never know but I'm just pointing out billy Garrett misses a free throw and we don't choke against Belmont it's a different tune about Henry's year.
