Hoop Addicts.....Your Fix is One Week Away

In one week, Marquette University will unveil the 2006-2007 basketball team at Midnight Madness. The evening will be full of bling and hype -- as we've come to expect over the years.

Here's the link to the official MU announcement.

The announcement also points out that this season marks the 90th anniversary of MU hoops. One of the highlights of the season will be the 'all class reunion' of Marquette basketball, where MU will welcome back all former players, coaches and managers for the weekend of the West Virginia game. That'll be one great weekend. Kudos to MU (and to those who prodded MU) for expanding the pool this year to invite former coaches and managers.

Oh, and by the way, MU now has a new online gift store -- its really quite impressive, with a huge catalog of items to choose from. If you want to play the MU version of 'Where's Waldo' we dare you to fine any non-youth tems bearing the Golden Eagle. C'mon, play along!
