Marquette Men's Basketball
The 2007-2008 season marks the 91st season of Marquette men's basketball, which has had a tradition of success. Due largely to the accomplishments of the team in the 1970s (coached by Al McGuire) Marquette is synonymous with basketball. Now, under coach Buzz Williams, Marquette is reemerging as a perennial basketball power again.
Throughout the years, the team has called many venues “home” including The Old Gym, The Auditorium, The MECCA, and The Bradley Center
