  • Conner George 14-2 - Spartan Years (2018-2019) - Redshirt Junior Season
    Chapter 14 - Conner George 14-2 - Spartan Years (2018-2019) - Redshirt Junior Season Conner George With the Spartans 2018-19 season approaching and three seasons (redshirt, redshirt freshman, and redshirt sophomore) of experience under his belt, George continued to work hard to play a key role on the Spartans squad, especially with the team’s new mix of players, given the loss of five players (three to graduation plus both Miles Bridges and Jaren Jackson, Jr. to the NBA) and the addition of an incoming freshman class of five new players. However, before the start of the 2018-19 season, The Black Sheep MSU, was again up to its “fake news” reporting with breaking news that the “Phoenix Suns planned to select Conner George with the first pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.” With this now being the third time that Conner was the “butt” of a Black Sheep article, a now tough-skinned George took the ribbing in stride and tweeted the perfect comeback: “First of all I just want like to thank God…” 2018-19 Going into his third season of NCAA eligibility (redshirt junior), George was listed in his MSU bio at 6’4”, 200 pounds. The Spartans’ team composition for the 2018-19 season changed significantly from 2017-18 season between departures (those who graduated or left early to enter NBA) and the incoming 2018 Recruiting Class (see team roster at bottom of next page). 2018-19 Spartans Men’s Basketball Squad (#41 Conner George) While George is listed as a Guard, in games he normally plays on the left or right wing (as forward), with the guard position covered by the starters (Cassius Winston and Josh Langford) or subs (Kyle Ahrens, freshman Foster Loyer, or Jack Hoiberg), leaving George with the challenge of competing for playing time at forward with taller players: starters Matt McQuaid (6’5”) and Kenny Goins (6’6”), 6’9” Xavier Tillman who also backs up center Nick Ward, and four freshman all listed at forward: Aaron Henry (6’6’), Gabe Brown (6’7”), Thomas Kithier (6’8”), and Marcus Bingham (6’10”).

Thank you for your friendship. Ms. Sandy Sterner for keeping me on my toes with her wit and humor, and Dr. Cooley for agreeing to serve on my board. Kathy Perrone for encouraging me always, seeing things in me I can only hope to fulfill and helping me to develop my writing. Dr. Anissa Wardi, you and Prajna have changed my life every time I attend your classes. My parent s for giving me life and being so encouraging and trusting in me even though they weren't sure what I was up to. My Godparents, Jerry and Sharon for assisting in the opportunity for me to come to Chatham. All of the tutorial students that came before me and all that will follow. I would like to give thanks for Hip-Hop and Sean Carter/Jay-Z, especially for The Black Album. With each revolution of the CD my motivation to complete this project was renewed. Whitney Brady, for your excitement and brainstorming sessions with me. Peace to Divine Culture for his electricity and Nabri Savior.
