Elmore can play
- Thread starter WVUBuck
- Start date
Elmore is a better overall player than Trae Young........don't care what anyone says to me, but what my eyes saw today and what I've seen with Young, Elmore is the better PLAYER to have on a TEAM.
If Peneva makes the same stupid mistakes he made today, Huggy wont let them walk back though the door once it is shut tight.
I can't wait to see Jevon on Elmore. I think Elmore might have trouble sleeping tonight after watching Jevon's point guard clinic on defense and offense and being the coach on the floor.
Marshall is a better team than I expected to see. I hadn't watched the Herd all year because they weren't on WVU's schedule. Now they are.
Elmore is yet another WV in state talent in a long list for many years that should be a Mountaineer but WVU didn’t recruit. Huggs needs to start evaluating and recruiting WV kids more. We’ve got a bunch in state right now the next 3 classes we need to recruit.
Elmore is a star. If Elmore played on WVU team currently WVU would easily win national title. Elmore, Jevon and Sags would be the big 3. Unstoppable.

Elmore enrolled at Marshall in January 2015 as a Virginia Military Institute transfer and wasn't eligible to play for the Thundering Herd men's basketball team, so he joined an intramural squad.
Elmore’s grandfather, Otmer, was diagnosed with late stages of cancer. Paralysis started setting in for the patriarch of the Elmore family, and he was no longer able to perform daily functions. In the early 1960s, Otmer played basketball for West Virginia University and was a “larger-than-life” figure for Elmore and his older brother Ot, named after him. In order to care for their grandfather, Elmore and Ot, who had redshirted as a freshman the year before at VMI, withdrew from the school before ever playing a game.
“I decided that (my grandfather) was bigger than school and basketball,” Elmore said. “I got to spend the final four months of my grandpa’s life with him every day, talking to him, taking care of him. I wouldn’t trade that for anything.”
Elmore decided to enroll at Marshall, the closest Division-I school to his house in Charleston, West Virginia. For the next few months, he drove back and forth during the week from school to his home to stay with his grandfather.

Now lay the crap off WVU not taking or wanting him garbage. It had nothing to do about WVU and Elmore made the decision to stay close to care for his Grandfather.
