Bill Murray Cheers UConn's March Madness Win

0:00On March 30, Bill Murray, the comedy-king from Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day, showed up courtside for some wild march madness action. He was there hyping his son Luke, an assistant coach for Yukon, as they stunned Duke in the Elite 8 on March 29, 2026 at Capital One Arena in Washington. The Huskies pulled off a 73-72 thriller to punch their ticket to the final four. The game looked done for Yukon early, but they flipped the script with a massive second half rally. They forced the key turnover late, and freshman Braylon Mullins drained a clutch, long three at the buzzer to seal it. Murray rocked a navy blue shirt and hat, fully locked in from the stands. Fans lost it when cameras caught Bill jumping around with the Yukon band after the win, pure joy on display. It's a big moment for the Murray family, with Luke grinding as an assistant under coach Dan Hurley since 2021. Luke's always been vocal about his pride and his son's hard work on the sidelines.

1:00Just days before, on March 26, Luke landed his dream gig as head coach for Boston College man's basketball, starting next season. He's bounced around top programs like Arizona, Louisville, and Xavier over nearly 20 years, building that rep step by step. Yukon keeps rolling toward a title run, and with Luke eyeing his own legacy at BC, this family's basketball story just keeps getting better.
