ESPN article on Henry

[TheSultan]

"Why did Ellenson go to Marquette? Oh right, because of his brother. That makes sense now." <---------- entire point of that article.

Probably pretty accurate though. Do people think HE comes here without Wally?

Paint touches has a pretty good response article up

Ugh. Why do we always come off so damn oversensitive? It was a very nice article.

No, but he also wouldn't have come here if Marquette was a non-entity. He didn't join his brother Ellwood in school after all.

Too defensive. MU is not a sexy brand name right at this point in time. Couple bad years and Wojo is obviously rebuilding. Just what it is.

Why does it need to be said by Dani in the writing?

[MU/Panther]

Did some of the comments in this article rub anybody else the wrong way? Or am I just too defensive??

I agree with you. Dani is a terrible writer. I gave up on anyone at that site. Pointless things were said in her piece.

No, but he also wouldn't have come here if Marquette was a non-entity. He didn't join his brother Ellwood in school after all.

The article doesn't imply that he would have.

The Big East does need to earn its spurs in post-season play. That has not happened yet. Suspect some here are overly sensitive.

Problem I have is that Butler, Xavier, Villanova, Georgetown, MU have all made significant noise in March and have rich traditions. Analyzing these schools should go beyond just the last 2-3 years (even though I get that it correlates with when the new 10 team Conference started). Hopefully the 3rd year is the charm in terms of March results.

[MU/Panther]

Wasn't Xavier in the Sweet 16 last year.

[mufan2003]

Wasn't Xavier in the Sweet 16 last year.

Yes. Butler, Georgetown, Villanova each won their first game.

Another article.....again a mention that people might not know much about Ellenson because he is playing for a " borderline NCAA tournament team in the Big East" . http://www.cbssports.com/collegebask...een-impressive
