What was the tribute like?
« on: February 16, 2008, 11:08:05 AM »
They didn't show any of it ESPN, who was there from the team?  Was it the typical introduction followed by an epic montage?

And I want to say congrats to the student section last night! Y'all were loud and represented MU great last night

Way to go!

WE ARE MARQUETTE!

The tribute started out with a video montage of the Final Four run. 

Next Bob Wild came out to his standard entrance music (the beginning of Right Now by Van Halen) along with Steve Cottingham.

Next the players were announced as if it was 2003.  For example...

"A 6'1" Sopohomore from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.  Guard, Travis Diener!"
"The 6th Man, a 6'10" Freshman from Brown Deer, Wisconsin.  Forward, Steve Novak!"

The order of announcements was Tony Gries, Jared Sichting, Andy Freund, Steve Novak, Travis Diener, Scott Merritt, and Terry Sanders.

Next a recorded message from Tom Crean was played and then Travis spoke to the crowd.

It then ended with a recorded message from Dwyane Wade who couldn't make it because of the All-Star game.

Actually the order was Dan Idstein, Tony Gries, Jared Sichting, Andy Freund, Steve Novak, Travis Diener, Scott Merritt, and Terry Sanders.

I was also wondering who was manning the smoothie stand with Terry not there.
But I like to throw handfuls...

You're right!  I forgot about the manager!
