Fred Brown was a huge recruit from Stevenson in The BX. Special talent before knee injury

I'm curious to see if he tries to recruit in NY/NJ--Gtwn never really has been a player in NY Tri State, which was pretty much a JT2 thing as I always heard he thought the stars there were too entitled. For a quarter century before John Thompson arrived, NY/NJ was just about the only place Georgetown recruited. www.hoyabasketball.com/players/bb-state2.htm

Remember Big John noting that when on a home visit for one of the guys noted above there were 20+ locals that just happened to drop by while he was in the house.

All fair points, but giving the hype of the new coach, I expected to see more action on the recruiting front. Has he even completed his staff yet and who is this miracle DC recruiter. The miracle DC recruiter is Ronaldo Thompsonio. You will not hear from or about him because he likes to keep a low or stealth profile…

Does he have connections to the local AAU circuit?

Why is this so insane? 3 guys were part of our 2-18 season, while Epps is talented but arguably no more so than Spears or Murray. Obviously Hunter is a big upgrade over Q, but it’s not that like Starting 5 is going to be BE preseason favorites or anything. Coaching we know will be better, but I’d temper my excitement until we also are getting an upgrade for Bristol and/or Heath too.

Agree but I’d be shocked if Bristol in particular is starting next season.

Trying to beat Dickinson to the punch? Hard to imagine either guy would want to share minutes at the 5.

Trying to beat Dickinson to the punch? Hard to imagine either guy would want to share minutes at the 5. Agree. Hard to know how the Dickinson rumored interest affects this decision. I'd have been bullish on Lampkin announcing for Gtown. But is he really going to announce to Gtown if there's a possibility he's the backup big playing 10-15 minutes a game. Seems highly doubtful. And in the reverse, if he does commit to Gtown, seems very unlikely we win the Dickinson sweepstakes. Tomorrow will be interesting.
