The Hoyas just finished their 5th undefeated February in their history. The other 4 seasons were 1919 (3-0), 1928 (8-0), 1980 (9-0) and 1985 (9-0). I'm sure some of the old timers can weigh in on how the 1919 and 1928 teams compared with the current one--EasyEd? Nevada? ;D  Also, if you were worried about the need for a loss, both the 1980 and the 1985 teams kept their winning streaks going until they lost in the Elite Eight and the National Championship. |

What was the locker room exchange in 2008 or 2009 b/t JTIII and Jeff Green? Something about February being "Georgetown's time"? I remember loving the quotes. And I'm even happier that it's true again.

This is all excellent. The Hoyas have been particularly excellent in February over the past several years. Now its time to post a similar March record. Enough of these early exits.

During the non-undefeated Februarys, aren't there always threads popping up on Hoyatalk arguing that JTIII teams somehow "fade" down the stretch in February?
