ESPNU Campus Connection Week

[Tom Crean's Tanning Bed]

Watching the Pitt-Syracuse game tonight...anyone know if MU is participating in this on Saturday with the DePaul game?  Gotta say it's pretty cool to see students doing player intros/talking about their campus/doing play-by-play.

I've been impressed with what I've seen of him, although that hasn't been much.

The ESPNU campus Connection Week Commercial has a clip of MU student section with the Eagle.

Is that you, TT34?

B Henry is a great guy.  Gotta be a pretty tough customer not to like him.  Knew him real well my freshman year and think he does a respectable job with the commentary.  Good to see him getting some props.
