Towey originally planned to debut the song not after a basketball game, but after a football game, Super Bowl XXI on January 25, 1987. It was to have been the post-game montage from that contest, but the game ran past the expected airtime and CBS had a prime time show to debut in the next time slot,[a] so the montage was canceled. CBS then asked Barrett for permission to use the song after the 1987 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship Game on March 30, in which Indiana beat Syracuse. Towey decided to use "One Shining Moment" to close CBS's coverage of the tournament. The positive public response led to it becoming an annual feature.

2010 was hilarious, I know I logged a complaint!

A version by Jennifer Hudson was used for the 2010 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament; the format of the Hudson video deviated from prior years by cutting away from the tournament highlight montage on several occasions to show footage of Hudson singing in a recording studio, drawing criticism from some fans and viewers.[9][10][11] In response to the criticism, the Vandross version was broadcast the following year.

Really I love the song and it fits perfectly. Different strokes for different folks. I really love when Luther Vandross(RIP) sings it.

The original version recorded by Barrett was used from 1987 to 1993, and briefly revived between 2000 and 2002 with a new instrumental. Versions recorded by Teddy Pendergrass (1994–1999), Luther Vandross (2003–2009, 2011–2019, 2021–present), and Ne-Yo (2016) have also been used; Vandross' version is believed to be the last song he recorded before his stroke and death.

@tcf15 was the man! It's tournament time, let's go!

Back when we developed players so well, we didn’t need the perfect offense for them to look good.

Pretty cool Tik Tok that shows the furthest each seed has been in the tournament.

We of course were the only 7 seed. One of two 4 seeds. One of five 3 seeds.
