Man, I have no idea... Assume it someone from the 80s/early 90s?
Dwayne Johnson. He was a mega-get for Marquette back in the early 80's. I think was a first team Street and Smith's guy in the HS Rankings. He, Mandy Johnson and Marc Marotta made up the recruiting class that was supposed to put them back on the map.
Before Prince blew up in 1984 he played Mecca a couple times. Dwayne's arrest was a big "scandal" at the time. And of course 98% of the city asked "who is Prince?" as Prince was somewhat an unknown artist back then. I remember as a kid it being a big local controversy on sports talk radio because Dwayne wasn't fulfilling his potential to lead MU back to the promised land. So the "Prince" thing went on for months.
