Lowers St John's desperation for our game and maybe pushes X down in the line in any byzantine tie-breaker scenario that may play out.

I'm for whatever scenario that has us not playing Xavier in the BET

No more regular season games left against XU, but one to go with SJU. If they beat XU, helps their RPI, which will help our RPI after we beat them next Sat.

Go SJU!!

There’s a saying in the college basketball world that teams play like the coaches that lead them. This will be true of Georgetown under Cooley’s staff as well. “Discipline is a staple. Toughness, energy, connection, and enthusiasm. Those things will also be staples of our organization,” he said.

Because we will end up playing both teams twice, the end of season impact on our RPI will be identical at year end. A St Johns win would momentarily reduce our RPI since we would have played Xavier twice and St Johns only once.

Thinking about the RPI for more than ten seconds reminds me of why it is such an awful statistic. I am glad that it has the Hoyas ranked well this season, but would love to see the NCAA stop using it forever.

Go Hoyas!

Agreed. I want SJU to make the tourney but to do it in a fashion that does not involve beating us at all...
