Friars aiming big with John Legend, Da Hoodie

PROVIDENCE – For the last several seasons a unique guessing game has circulated around the annual Late Night Madness festivities at Providence College.

The Friars have welcomed a series of celebrities and musical acts to campus to help Ed Cooley and Jim Crowley kick off the basketball season. Nick Cannon and Big Sean made a great impression and no one was bigger than Shaquille O’Neal. Ludacris and Lil Uzi Vert also cruised through campus and grooved through Alumni Hall.

The plan this year is different, in scope and in venue. PC is hoping the bigger, better Madness show says a lot about where the basketball program is headed.
