Green Machine plays Party Rock Anthem and Paul Hewitt wears a Doc Nix suit

Paul Hewitt has already bested Jim Larranaga in one category of Mason basketball: Mason Madness entrance awesomeness:

Meanwhile the Green Machine opened things up with LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem, great stuff as always.

Also GoMason.com has video.

As for the actual basketball, it appears they have added more than one walk-on this year, we'll have to wait for details on these guys.  Vertrail Vaughns looked good out there shooting the ball in the green vs gold scrimmage, as did Vaughn Gray.  Fans also got a good look at Erik Copes performing some post moves against Mike Morrison, I think this kid is going to be the real deal.

Official start to the season is underway.
