2003. That's Darnell Archey (currently an assistant under former Butler player/coach Matthew Graves at South Alabama) after hitting one of his eight three-pointers to beat Louisville, sending Butler to its first Sweet 16. (He only missed once, shooting 8-for-9 from three.) All the players buzzed their hair before the tournament, which you can see in the photo. (Including Joel Cornette, who had some pretty sweet hair before that.) Tourney warmups had "A Dog Fight" on the back, in reference to the gritty 1st round game against Mississippi State. That was my senior year at Butler, and will always be a really special time.
Also, to my knowledge, Archey still holds the D1 record for consecutive FT makes at 85 (spanning three seasons).
