Hoyas now officially in the running for arranging the softest non-con schedule of any team in a Major 7 conference.

They'll need it. Ewing will be another Eddie Jordan as a CBB coach

Patrick Ewing has not aged well.

He looks absolutely terrible. The weight gain is scary. Will be fired within 2 years. Loved him as a Knick.

Most 7 footers do not age well (or live long). Dawkins and Malone come to mind.

Patrick Ewing has not aged well.

Would never have recognized him.

They won't go undefeated in non conference play either. Would not be shocked if they win just two conference games.

Big John brought this upon Georgetown. They could be bad for a while

No way they win only 2 non conference games. I seen Georgetown play last year. They didn't lack talent..they just didn't play well together. That may still be the case but some of those schools are the absolute worst in college basketball. If they didn't win at least 5 of those games that would be embarrassing for such a storied program

 

[AshCatchEm]

They needed this so good move.

Perhaps you posted this before your first cup of coffee.

Go back and read my post again. Particularly the second sentence. Perhaps even read it out loud slowly so you can hear each word.

lol my bad Russ..

Didn't about 60% of their players transfer out last year? I know one landed at NU.(this guy
https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/2014/isaac-copeland-1040). I'm pretty sure there were 3 or 4 others that have left at the end of Jr's tenor or when Ewing got hired.

I think that suit doesn't do him justice. He should have splurged the extra $30 to have it tailored.

He looks like the Family Matters dad but like 50 years older.

THAT is a horrific OOC schedule. And does anyone think Ewing looks like the Grinch?

What happened to Elon College? They used to be a staple on Georgetown's schedule.

They're too good for Georgetown to play now

As I said on the Hall site, give it a rest. Neither of us are good enough to take the sanctimonious route.

FYI, Russ isn't "us" but is an analyst for Rivals based out of Florida. And that was a joke (almost as funny as Georgetown's schedule.)

A) Last season Elon took a team, whose three biggest contributors were sophomores, to Georgetown. The Hoyas had to grind their way to a three-point win.

Since this year's Georgetown team is not going to be as good as last year's, I'm not surprised they aren't playing Elon who should be better than last year.

B) "Neither of us"? "Sanctimonious"? I think you have me mistaken for something I am not. I posted "They're too good for Georgetown to play now," because Elon is.

Thanks, but not a joke. I scouted Elon last year in preparation of covering one of their games for another Rivals site. They're a good mid major team -- was one of only six teams to beat UNC-wilmington last season -- and will be better this year than last year. I like the Santa Ana kid. Seibring and Dawkins help form a good nucleus.

Georgetown or Elon?

Now that was a joke. Or maybe not....

Both schools have high school type on-campus gyms. I've been on Georgetown campus it's nice I've never been on Elon campus that's why I asked

C'mon, doesn't Ewing looks like the Grinch?

 

[Russ Wood]

The hits keep on coming. Xavier Johnson, anorthern VA kid with a Georgetown offer, is going to commit to Nebraska tonight.

This after two of his official visits (Georgia Tech and USF) were cancelled when those schools accepted commitments from other point guards.

 

[TDIrish27]

I was referring to the Elon facility.
