Idk. Wahab Akok Murray Anglin Riley and Mutombo were all 4* guys. Those early teams didn’t have more “pedigree” than that. Our fanbase is just seeing the results and saying that if they aren't winning they must not be talented. If these kids weren't talented they would be blown out in every game with the way Ewing runs the starters into the ground. Pretty much every game this season the team has had a comfortable lead at halftime but TTU and today. Then they lose the lead pretty quickly in the the 2nd half. That's a combination of fatigue and poor coaching. In most of the games the starters have played 17-20mins of the 1st half at a very fast pace. As I said in a previous post, this isn't NBA2K. Ewing stated he played 48 minutes a game. If they want to play in the NBA get use to playing a lot of minutes. 😂

Patrick built this program on his own shoulders. He is responsible for the Final Four runs that made this program notable. Unfortunately, he is now responsible for burning the program to the ground. Enough is enough. Name an interim coach to start the Big East Season. Fire Ronny and allow this program to start rebuilding. It’s not going to happen. Ewing has a whole new starting lineup the admin will allow him to finish the season. I completely agree with you and it is both sad and an insult as an alumnus. The administration holds students to a much higher standard. It is absolute malfeasance by DeGioia at this point. He should be shown the door on the way out as well.

Who else would have them. These two steaming piles deserve each other right now.

What I can't really square is why it's getting worse? Like the first few years were not anything as close to as bad as the last two. I don't think the Govan/Derrickson teams were any more talented than these teams. Like you'd think more experience at this level would be a good thing? But maybe it's the opposite and now the book is out on how to play against Ewing's teams? This is a good question, and one I’ve been thinking about, and I don’t really have great answers. But some thoughts: 1. When Ewing took over from JT3, he actually managed to keep everybody on the roster except Agau, which was a real positive (and credit to Ewing for that). These guys had already largely played together for a couple of years, and so Ewing was inheriting a JT3 coached roster. And even then the team got a good bit worse - just not as bad as this year or last year. It’s all this.

"Offense - Fail... The numbers in this one look weird, as they sort of always, do when you’re playing against a zone, but the one that jumps out is: not only did Georgetown have ZERO transition points according to ShotQuality, they had ZERO transition opportunities. Now some of that is how SQ classifies transition opportunities. Other sources count that pushing the ball to half-court or pushing off of makes more than SQ does. But Syracuse dictated this as a half-court-only game, and Georgetown obliged. Other than that, this one was pretty simple. When you play Syracuse, you need to be able to move the ball to get open shots - particularly threes. Georgetown is really bad at moving the ball to generate and hit open threes. Georgetown went 6-25 from three in this game. That’s 24%. That’s not good. Even though Syracuse was worse from three. That’s just not going to get it done. Defense - Fail... Georgetown lost this game because they could not defend. Georgetown has lost most games because they cannot defend. Georgetown’s defense seems to get worse rather than better, despite supposed changes to scheme/coaching/approach and improved individual defenders. The defense remains the ultimate stain on Coach Ewing’s tenure at Georgetown. It is abysmal, atrocious and embarrassing. Georgetown allowed Syracuse an offensive rating of 118.6 (that is the number of points estimated over 100 possessions (which is roughly the number of possessions in an NBA game). Syracuse isn’t a great offensive team, but they are not horrible. They sit at 118 in CBK with a 107.8 offensive rating. Cuse’s 118 rating puts Georgetown on par with venerable Syracuse opponents Oakland (2-9 on the year and allowed a 118 ORtg) and Lehigh (4-4 on the year and allowed a 120 ORtg). The only other opponent to allow a worse offensive rating against Syracuse was 1-10 Monmouth... There is nothing (and I don’t think I am being hyperbolic here) literally NOTHING good about the defense. It is not a well-intentioned scheme that is not being executed by the players. It’s a bad scheme, with weird emphases, principles, and decisions—all of which puts players in bad positions, is being executed poorly, and has no discernable adjustments.
