Marquette has landed former Texas pledge Emarion Ellis, a source told @stockrisers. Was formerly committed to Shaka Smart prior to his transition to the Golden Eagles. This was expected, but, now official.

Whoa. Well I guess that's a loud reply to my "it's been quiet with Ellis"

Wow that’s out of nowhere. Very excited to watch this kid play from the little I’ve seen of him. I like the fact that he played football as well. I think we’ll see a lot of 3 guard lineups.

Love to see it

Nice! Anyone know if he played against Carton in HS? Seems like they're close in distance

Bates is the higher ranked player but I've heard that Ellis may have been more coveted by Shaka. A lot of upside here. Very excited he's on the team.

Last Ellis got us a natty.

They did. Two years apart but rival schools.

Jerry Meyer Scouting Report:
National Rank: 105
Projection: Power 5 Starter

Up and coming prospect with tremendous upside. Great length for a point guard. Has thin frame and needs added strength and mass. Has a burst of speed, can wiggle through traffic and is a good finisher off one foot. Has a low release on jumper and not known as a shooter but projects as an at least keep the defense honest shooter. Sees the court and is developing as a playmaker for others. Has a knack for rebounding. One on one defense has room for improvement but has good hands and is an opportunistic defender.

Wondering if DJ Carton played a role in recruiting?

Awesome news

Only a 3*, huh?

For sure. I don't know if you know this, but Jalen Suggs played football. I don't know why the announcers never mentioned that during the tourney.

I'm guessing this was implied teal...but 247 lists him as a 4-star.

Yup, Shaka not off to the start that some here had expected. Half the roster was to be gone and replaced with 5* already.

A little intro to Emarion Ellis via the Rock Island Dispatch:

Quote

Iowa player of the year: Emarion Ellis, sr., Assumption
After earning all-state honors as a junior at Davenport Central, Ellis transferred to Assumption for his final year and flourished. Despite missing time with injury, he had his fingerprints all over the Knights' success. The athletic guard led coach Matt Fitzpatrick's team in scoring, rebounding, assists, steals and blocks per game as Assumption won 19 games and reached the Class 3A state semifinals. Signed to play at Texas and listed as a four-star recruit by Rivals, Ellis poured in a career-high 33 points versus Ballard and was named all-tournament at state

JWags85 · « **Reply #23 on:** April 13, 2021, 01:09:15 PM »

Given our recent history, a 6’5 guard at the point is very exciting
