Casual Hoya on the rivalry, done in their witty, inimitable style.

rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/news?slug=ys-mondaytip020711As well as things are going, they could certainly change in a hurry. Thompson’s squad faces a mammoth task Wednesday when it hits the road to play No. 17 Syracuse. Then, after a hosting a dangerous Marquette team Sunday, the Hoyas travel to Storrs for a game against sixth-ranked Connecticut. We’ll know a lot more about Georgetown after that trio of games, but I like the direction this team is headed, and something tells me Thompson does, too.

rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/news?slug=ys-mondaytip020711As well as things are going, they could certainly change in a hurry. Thompson’s squad faces a mammoth task Wednesday when it hits the road to play No. 17 Syracuse. Then, after a hosting a dangerous Marquette team Sunday, the Hoyas travel to Storrs for a game against sixth-ranked Connecticut. We’ll know a lot more about Georgetown after that trio of games, but I like the direction this team is headed, and something tells me Thompson does, too. You forgot the top part of the article: One team I wouldn’t want to face right now – in conference play or the NCAA tournament – is Georgetown. A lot of people (myself included) wrote off the Hoyas when they lost four of five games during the early portion of Big East play. But lately John Thompson III’s squad is reminding us why many were so high on Georgetown at the beginning of the season. Saturday’s victory over an underrated Providence team marked the sixth straight win for the Hoyas, who are 18-5 overall and 7-4 in league play. Their march includes triumphs over ranked schools such as Villanova and Louisville, as well as the St. John’s team it lost to earlier in the year. Austin Freeman is beginning to remind people why he was chosen as the Big East’s Preseason Player of the Year. He’s averaging 20.3 points during Georgetown’s win streak and, more important, he’s providing the leadership and setting the tone for a squad that now appears capable of beating just about any team it faces. In Freeman, Chris Wright and Jason Clark, Georgetown not only touts one of the most talented backcourts in the country, but also one of the most experienced. All three players are seniors. The loss of Greg Monroe left a void in the Hoyas’ frontcourt. Still, even though it isn’t as imposing as it was a year ago, this is still a deep unit with a group of underappreciated big men such as Julian Vaughn, Hollis Thompson, Henry Sims, Nate Lubick and Jerrelle Benimon. Pittsburgh has established itself as the top team in the Big East. After the Panthers, Georgetown is as good as anyone when the Hoyas are on top of their game, which they currently seem to be. ONE Game At A Time!!!! |

REMINDER: Please limit this thread to article links only (as much as possible). It is supposed to serve as an easy site for readers to find game-related articles without having to wade through multiple posts to do so. Thanks.
