The Basketball Tournament - Marquette Alumni Team

I think both Blue and Buycks would be passing based on following NBA dreams.

Interesting that Marquette is tweeting out videos of the players being worked out by the coaching staff. I guess I never thought that these guys would actually be on campus to work out together much less by the current staff. That's really pretty cool.

Wojo actually started that last year, as he did a "Pro Training Camp". Most of the guys that are playing pro, NBA or Euro, attended last year. Put them through a tough training camp.

With the BBQ going on this week, quite a few basketball alums around. Marcus Jackson, who lives in the area with his family, tweeted that he got together with some of the guys last night, including Todd Townsend.

This is a really fantastic idea by the MU coaching staff, gets the guys back on campus, and not only the players playing in the tournament, but their buddies too, really gets a buzz going for the fans too and will likely make people more willing to go to the BBQ.

Thanks Jim. Pretty cool idea.

Agree. This is a great idea.

Shows what I (we?) know. Buycks joins the roster. Roster is set.

According to Matt V's blog, they also added Marcus Jackson and Derrick Wilson to the roster. That's a pretty deep roster now.

Well at least the DW haters will get a few more games to spew their wrath, haha.
