New Remember the Titans video

My disappointment with this one is that they took away the clear, definitive moment for everyone to clap for the '77 championship.  In past years, they've gone straight to Al crying on the bench, and the students knew to applaud.  With this version, there are three or four different scenes, with no clarity as to which is "the moment" for everyone to make some noise.

They're starting to wean the students from applauding 1977 so they will have all their applause in store by the time 2017-18 season's video is released that shows the 2017 championship.

Don't be a jerk. You don't know anything about me. I would put my knowledge of Marquette and Marquette basketball history up against anyone my age.

Obviously I wrote it awkwardly but I obviously know wtf we won and why there would be a parade.

If I offended, I apologize.  I'm not suggesting that you don't know who Butch is and was merely teasing you about your inartful word choice.  The rest of my comments reflect a more general 'sad state of affairs' and were not directed at you.

Uh, if Bo Ellis shooting his head and shoulders through the rim, the Marquette UNC scoreboard and Curt Gowdy exclaiming that "Marquette has just won the national championship," isn't enough of a cue, then the students and fans should NOT be entitled to a Marquette degree!

You can barely hear the Gowdy cut! How could anyone understand it if they don't watch the video on youtube.

Also there used to be a solid 30 seconds of 77' tape, now there is just the quick shot of Al and Bo.

Well, the team has been around for 99 years.  I think 1977 gets its share of time.

I wouldn't be surprised if cutting down that part was a conscious decision.  I don't MU fans to be about 1977 the way Bear fans are regarding 1985.  Let's honor the past, but expect equally great accomplishments in the future.

I hope this is the case. I love the history of the program, but having Al on the front and back of our jerseys is a bit much.
