In July of 2020, amidst the coronavirus pandemic, Travis Diener let fly from the corner of the court at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, and cashed a $1 million check for Golden Eagles, the team of Marquette men’s basketball alumni (and friends) as the MU guys won The Basketball Tournament in their fifth attempt at claiming the winner-take-all prize.
Let’s watch again, because we’re going to get into some pretty serious stuff in a minute, and some levity to start will be nice.
