Oh man when I see the name Doherty I think of 2 posters on the opposite ends of the Doh Spectrum

Similar, yes. Ron G. wore a chevron t-shirt that was sold back then though.
Was at the game today and was disappointed they did not introduce former Lou players/coaches who were at the game today.

Sounds like some things at SJU never change
Just don’t get it.
Seems so simple... a standing item on the game day event plan no different than knowing exact time they show anything else on scoreboard or halftime shenanigans.
We preach tradition but don’t honor it. Disappointing.

And they know what formers players and staff are attending as our ticket office handles the requests. I know 5-6 of my former basketball managers attended in addition to players and staff.
I was told that at Sunday Supper with Looie about 85 former players would be in attendance. Not only weren't they announced, by and large were not part of video tributes. I was disappointed that at the very least they weren't acknowledged by name.
It wasn't the place for that at all, but there were dozens of former players at Looie's funeral. Some traveled long distances to attend, and it occurred to me there likely may never be a gathering like that again.
They made an announcement and said a welcome however when the camera flashed to the crowd, they showed the right section but not the rows the former players and support staff were sitting in. They briefly got another shot.
Should have had them come out on the court to acknowledge them.
There were a few other things they could have done but ….
During one of the timeouts they had Manetta on with the Hype Man and the cameras focused on Ed’s sweater.
They weren’t close to that many former players yesterday but something more should have been done.

I remember I wanted Hewitt so bad after the great run at Georgia tech.

It certainly was a nice tribute. I don't how many newer fans remember the Maven who produced a number of episodes of Inside the Big East back in the day.
He has had some bad luck of late ...... getting hit by car and now hospitalized after a fall. Prayers for you Maven.
