Whoa, Pop in the hospital according to Patrick post game comment? Pops hasn't been to a home game all season. Nor has Lori Michel.

I was surprised with his verbal because every interview last year and into summer he was saying he wanted to go to school out of DC area to experience something different. Well the door is open for some other point guard. Who can handle the torch next? Terrell is demonstrating what is required-- such great decision making and poise. We now have two open spots (unless other transfers or players heading to the next level after a great season). We lost one guard and have two graduate out this year. Need at least one more guard. A grad transfer or Juco to play immediately next year would be great. Another good shooter guard / wing would be a nice add too.

I was surprised with his verbal because every interview last year and into summer he was saying he wanted to go to school out of DC area to experience something different. Every interview, every pic...came across as a kid that felt like he was "settling" for GTown...at least to me... I think you're right. He was doing what someone else recommended not what he really wanted to do. That's what I felt. I think we will end up two other great players! Go Hoyas@ Go Coach Ewing---this is the kind of Hoyas ball you have been preaching. It looks good to me! So great to see such flow! BTW didn't Pickett do a great job! Great team win!

We need more guards.
As I have said before, what has happened may have worked out for the best. Now we just need to get a couple of top notch guards in the mold of Allen.

What has gotten into these Hoyas?!? Simple: we over me. Playing as one always wins over playing as I am the one.

All I can say is wow.
Blair?!?!?!? Wow. Wow. Wow. I personally think his stroke his ugly, but man did he have it going tonight. Would LOVE to be wrong in that.
I echo what everyone is saying. Allen making huge difference. The ball movement is so nice to see

Playing as one always wins over playing as I am the one. They passed this test with flying colors. Next test is to do it at home. If they can show us that next game, the Big East better watch the hell out.

Why is Galen Alexander bopping the ball off the opponent's head at the last second? C'mon Yeah that was low-class. Not the Georgetown way. I agree but it looks like he also gave him a pat. Wonder if they know each other. Not saying he should have done it, just seemed odd.

I have thought all season that if somehow TA got a shot to play minutes he would be the best PG we had on roster. The PG position is more about experience and marking the right choice, the unselfish choice. True PGs look for assists over points. He is the only Hoya with an elite 8 appearance, and it’s only fitting that the oldest and most experienced man on the roster controls the floor. We have stupid length and athleticism, and after tonight obvious shooting. With TA being the grown man driving the bus he might just get the final four game he was looking for. #HOYASAXA #WENOTME

Remember a few days ago when some thought it wouldn't even be worth it to watch any more games this season? Or that it was delusional to think we could win these two road games? HOYA SAXA!!!! yeah me neither

Nice to see GU had 26 assists and only 13 turnovers.

Fantastic team effort. These guys really enjoy playing with one another. Loved the way the starters kept hyping up Blair from the bench when he was going on that run

One thing all my SMU friends commented on was how long and athletic we are. I’ve heard it from others during almost every game.
Our guys pass the eye test that’s for sure.
