The former Gonzaga star presently is part of his alma mater’s radio team, and Morrison went bonkers when freshman Jalen Suggs banked in a 3-pointer at the overtime buzzer Saturday night against UCLA to keep the Bulldogs undefeated and vault them into Monday’s NCAA Tournament championship game against Baylor.

As play-by-play partner Tom Hudson is explaining the frantic final sequence and the immediate celebration, the 36-year-old Morrison can be heard repeatedly screaming “Yes!” and “Wow!”

A tearful Morrison had been on the other side of a heartbreaking loss to UCLA in the Sweet 16 of the 2006 tournament, with the Bruins scoring the final 11 points of the game for a 73-71 win. Morrison was a first-team All-America selection and the co-player of the year nationally that season with Duke’s JJ Redick.

Top-seeded Gonzaga (31-0) can become the first Division I men’s team to complete an unbeaten season since Indiana in 1976 on Monday night against Baylor (27-2). It will be Gonzaga’s second appearance in the championship game after losing in the finals to North Carolina in 2017.
