Blue commits to MU

In a twist that is sure to add even more spice to what has already become a heated rivalry between in-state rivals, Madison Memorial star Vander Blue on Sunday orally committed to play for the Marquette Golden Eagles, roughly five months after announcing he wouldn't follow through on an oral commitment to play for the Wisconsin Badgers.

Blue, a 6-foot-4 senior guard, took an official visit to MU over the weekend, and was in attendance for 'MU Madness' at the Al McGuire Center on Friday night. Decked out from head to toe in MU gear, Blue appeared to be at home and enjoying himself as he took in the fesitivities, which included his best friend, Golden Eagles freshman forward Jeronne Maymon.

That Blue was even in position to be choosing MU about three weeks prior to the NCAA's early signing period is quite a story itself. His recruitment has been one of the hottest topics among state college basketball fans ever since he held a news conference in Madison on May 19 to announce he would consider signing with a school other than UW.

Well, this just made my day. Go get Tarik Black, now, and we'll have quite a roster on that 2011 team.

Daniel, I'm excited and all...but this post is a bit frightening.

IWB and Rosiak are confirmation enough for me.

In order to win consistently in the Big East, you need to string together a few great classes in a row. This is now two really good classes in a row for Buzz. Things are definitely headed in the right direction.

Couldn't say it better myself. So pumped. Nice work, Buzz.

Welcome Vander!
WE ARE MARQUETTE!

ChicosBailBonds · « **Reply #20 on:** October 18, 2009, 05:22:32 PM »

Told ya!

Welcome aboard Mr. Blue, the fact that he didn't go to UW-Madison makes it even better. Have the Wisconsin fans starting slamming Rita (his mother) yet, or does that start tomorrow?

Wareagle · « **Reply #21 on:** October 18, 2009, 05:23:53 PM »

Buzz confirmed last year that he could win with good players and he's bringing in even better players. This upcoming year may be tough, but the next couple will be ridiculous.

Daniel · « **Reply #22 on:** October 18, 2009, 05:26:51 PM »

This is a great moment for Marquette, for Buzz and the entire staff, for Vander Blue and his mom, and all of us rabid fans who love Marquette so much. As far as I'm concerned, no other schools need to be mentioned.

WE are Marquette! Welcome Vander Blue and all of your family who will cheer you on!
