Wichita State Commercial

[ShockerGorilla]

Does anyone have a link to the #Watchus WSU commercial with the "Hall of Fame" song by The Script in the background, and everything is in slow motion? It is a great commercial that shows clips of many of the Shocker athletic teams and ends at a men's basketball game. They have been playing it at a timeout every home game.

I like all the media stuff they've been doing this season. LOVE the #WatchUs campaign.

I also like what they are doing, and they have improved the music of the intro video, but I'm dismayed that the video itself doesn't have any history in it or show that we are defending MVC Champs. It's certainly not as good as the past several years.

Was there a change in the Marketing Dept that lead to all of this happening?

WATCHUS is awesome!

[Kung Wu]

It's cohesive too. They are keeping all of the marketing pretty much on the same theme which makes a BIG, BIG impact over where it was before with the intro video in one style and theme, then timeout stuff in another, then Facebook completely different from those, and on and on.

They have seriously stepped up their game.

I totally dig the classic block font they are using too. Classy, clean, and strong.

its obvious that a NEW president does wonders for everyone on campus...including the mens basketball program...I love it, only complaint is the 15 minutes prior to tipoff could be better utilized...better screen videos, dim the lights, spotlights, things that pump up the crowd and hype the game up. Other then that, the marketing and promotion of our product has drastically improved

The #watchus commercial is supposed to go online at some point -- I asked on Facebook yesterday and e-mailed the marketing people and they said they are working on it.

I love that video.

One commercial I dislike seeing is the one where you got the 5 guys walking toward the camera in the tunnel in their white jerseys and you can tell Ron Baker's 'Wichita State' is in a different font. Let's act like a major program and start dressing our players in matching uniforms from Pete's Sake.

Our lights take way to long to warm back up.

Along the same lines, what is the song they play right before the introduction of the starting lineup for the Shox?

The song playing under the video is "Can't Hold Us" by Macklemore. It's an awesome song. Listened to it the other day on the way to the CU game and it just got me pumped and ready to go for the game.

Well, don't forget we have the smoke machine, which performs like a popcorn fart.

That thing is quite possibly the most embarrassing WSU ad produced in the current era.
