Winning team earns $2 million, top 100 fans who vote take share of money
For the first time in history, Marquette men’s basketball fans can actually make money by simply supporting their team.
It’s not a matter of cheering on current or future Golden Eagles but rather a team comprised of basketball alumni.
The athletics department asked former Marquette forward Dan Fitzgerald to compile a team for The Basketball Tournament, a single-elimination tournament with a grand prize of $2 million.
