Ellis was a very good get. He was in that string of solid JUCO pick-ups, not all of which panned out. Reid, Sei, Pasco, DeJesus, Spurlock, Richards, Ellis, and Hart were all decently touted JUCO recruits, all in Wooly's first few years. Those were the guys that hoopscoop kept promising us would lead us to an upper division finish, along with Hayden, Martin, Willingham.
