Is Bleacher Report just cribbing from Hoyatalk/Casual now? I hope so. The subsequent grammatical improvement would be greatly appreciated.

I expect Joshua to be a huge(in the right way!) factor this year. 15 points, 7 or 8 boards a game, even some assists - not to mention the way he will open things up for the shooters. He knows this may be his last chance to impress the scouts and grab a lucrative pro career, and appreciates the second chance we are giving him(and his 3rd chance overall). Gotta believe. Cannot WAIT to get the season started!

What FrazierFanatic said. I may be the eternal optimist (not as much as glide but if he's in shape and driven this year, he takes this team to a whole new level. Not to mention a great recruiting story for JT3 for big men down the road. We have more depth than any team that III has put on the court during his GU tenure. We have a ton of very good passers and long wings to help Josh out on defense. The last time we had 4 very serviceable Freshmen thrown into the mix with great Veteran leadership, the Hoyas finished the regular season as a Top 5 team in all of college basketball.

Man, if Josh is back and ready to "roll", can you imagine what that would do for our reputation?

This is Josh's last stand. If he doesn't pull it together this season, he will fade into oblivion.

My only question is where could he have put in all of this work? Why have we not seen any pics of him in the last two months?

Josh needs to think about the opportunity in front of him. All he has to do is (i) control his weight and get fit, (ii) stay academically eligible, and (iii) play reasonably well this year. If he does all those things, he will be an NBA first round pick and a guaranteed millionaire. It's like he's been given a winning lottery ticket and doesn't realize it.

Because not everyone wants their business out there like that simple as that He wasn't in DC, correct? That'd obviously help keep things out of the public eye. Then again, it is shocking that nothing leaked from Georgetown. The Hoyas program is a sieve.

Didn't someone post a pic of Smith and another player back in May or June where Josh looked slimmer?

There was one pic of him posted at the beginning of the summer I believe. Maybe a jabril tweet or other social media pic. Not sure which thread it was posted in. He did look thinner. If he put the work in this summer he will be a man amoung boys in the BE. He should easily average 15 pt and hopefully fill up the rest of the stat sheet. I think the appropriate response to this thread is one of the following: Pics or it didn't happen Pics or Shut up Pics or gtfo
