Optimistic Hoyas fans believe a staff hire and transfer commitments are imminent.
The NCAA basketball season is over and the BIG EAST, by way of the UConn Huskies, emerged as two-time champions. Your Georgetown Hoyas look to turn the page on a dismal season after a week that included an earthquake, a solar eclipse, and several dozen derogatory April Fools jokes from a severely prejudiced Providence fanbase. With the recruiting “dead period” ending on April 11th, the next question is, when will Ed Cooley make some additions to the staff and roster? Hopefully soon ..read more

The first weekend of the NCAA Tournament is one of the best sports weekends of the year and another one is in the books as the original field of 68 has been whittled down to the Sweet 16. Of course that opening weekend feels even greater when your team survives and advances.
Now, if you are a Georgetown fan you haven’t had to sweat much this late into March Madness in what feels like forever.
Ok fine it hasn’t been forever, it’s just that in college basketball time not advancing since 2007 ..read more

BIG EAST threatens to run away with the NCAA Tourney again
The Big East is threatening to run away with the NCAA tournament again for the 2nd year in a row, as it’s already off to a 6-0 start. That’s better than any conference and far better than all other conferences except one. For example, the 6-bid Mountain West had 4 teams bounced by the end of the opening round, and only got a single team out of the opening weekend. The 8-bid SEC had 5 teams lose via upsets in the opening round to lower seeds. 4 of them were bad upsets by double-digit seeds including ..read more

You know the drill. Time is running out.
It is finally March, ladies and gentlemen. We collectively made it through the long darkness of winter and an even darker 2-win season of BIG EAST hoops. Your Georgetown Hoyas are not in the mix this year—and several BIG EAST teams got snubbed—but time marches on. The NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament gets rolling in just a couple of days, live from host cities around the country.
That means it’s time for all of you basketball savants to prove just how much more you know about this game than the rest of the miscre ..read more
