 Marquette managed to beat [[St. John's]] on the second day of the Big East Tournament, but lost to the Final Four-bound [[Villanova]] Wildcats on a last-second shot the next day.  Marquette received a favorable seed in the NCAA tournament, but a tough draw in a [[Utah State]] team, whose boisterous fans would travel very well to Boise, Idaho.  Marquette managed to get past [[Utah State]] and faced [[Missouri]] in the second round.  The night before the game, it was announced that [[Dominic James]] would be available to play.  James ended up playing less than 20 minutes and did not score, but was able to end his Marquette career on his terms.  Marquette lost a close game to a [[Missouri]] team that ended up dismantling a [[Memphis State|Memphis]] squad in the Sweet Sixteen, who many had predicted to be contenders for a national title. Marquette managed to beat [[St. John's]] on the second day of the Big East Tournament, but lost to the Final Four-bound [[Villanova]] Wildcats on a last-second shot the next day.  Marquette received a favorable seed in the NCAA tournament, but a tough draw in a [[Utah State]] team, whose boisterous fans would travel very well to Boise, Idaho.  Marquette managed to get past [[Utah State]] and faced [[Missouri]] in the second round.  The night before the game, it was announced that [[Dominic James]] would be available to play.  James ended up playing less than 20 minutes and did not score, but was able to end his Marquette career on his terms.  Marquette lost a close game to a [[Missouri]] team that ended up dismantling a [[Memphis State|Memphis]] squad in the Sweet Sixteen, who many had predicted to be contenders for a national title.

 +=== Notes ===
  
   *After [[Tom Crean]] abandoned Marquette in April 2008, [[Nick Williams]] and [[Tyshawn Taylor]] asked for and received releases from their National Letter of Intent to attend Marquette.  [[Scott Christopherson]] also asked to be released from Marquette after his first year of play.  Taylor ended up being a huge star at Kansas. Tom Crean stole Nick Williams for Indiana, but Williams left the Hoosiers after one year.  Christopherson transfered to Iowa State.   *After [[Tom Crean]] abandoned Marquette in April 2008, [[Nick Williams]] and [[Tyshawn Taylor]] asked for and received releases from their National Letter of Intent to attend Marquette.  [[Scott Christopherson]] also asked to be released from Marquette after his first year of play.  Taylor ended up being a huge star at Kansas.
