St. John's Tip-Off to Air on ESPNU

Quote from: Dave on October 09, 2010, 11:56:46 AM

I think the school is doing a great job in putting this together. I would urge them to however announce in advance whatever musical talent they have or at least throw out multiple big names out ensure people will show.

Most of these musical acts are flaky to say the least.  I'm sure they want 120% assurances they are in fact coming.

You don't want a version of the Puff Daddy/ Heavy D situation back in the 90s (oversold concert, people died in a stampede).

I'm sure STJ public safety can handle that.......hahaha kidding!

Doug Gottlieb will be at St. John's for the event as an analyst (maybe slam dunk judge?) coordinating back and forth from ESPNU studios.

The one thing the Norm Roberts crew did well was alumni hall security. They were great at that.

Aw, man, not the human haterade... I guess he lives in CT so he's close. But still.

haha good thing he's not at UCONN they'd have no wallets or lap tops. All kidding aside he's a big name to have on campus...like him or hate him everyone knows him.

This is what you can expect for the musical performance...

JIM JONES, RON BROWZ, & JUELZ SANTANA PERFORM "POP CHAMPAGNE" AT HOT 97 SUMMER JAM 2009

Personally I'm not a fan but this may be popular with the students. I'm not exactly sure.

They've played that song the last two years when the team runs out on the floor for the layup line.  I'm not a fan of him but the majority of the student body will love him from what I've heard around campus.

Doug is not liked by a lot of school's that don't challenge themselves. Like Syracuse.
Man, does he hate them.

By signing Lavin, it's clear to everyone that SJU is out of the we have no self respect phase.

I bet he spends the whole show raving about Lavin.

Tip Off is buzzing, a lot of the students are excited for it

Yeah...the less fans that show up, the easier the security's job was!

lol...na last years had a good amount of people. Each and every year it has gotten bigger and better. I think this year will blow any years in the past decade to shame.
