Can we please bring back the "We Are Georgetown" tape that we were playing before games about two years ago? The video highlights of our past players and teams would give me chills. And, since JTIII plans on bringing back those glory days, I think it would be fitting to have JT at the end of the video followed by JTIII. This tape could also be used for recruits to remind them of our glorious past, since most of them were too young to know how great we once were. Furthermore, JTIII's selling point to the recruits should be that he wants the recruit to help bring us back to the days when we were a dynasty and a dominant force on the college basketball landscape.
On a separate note, if anyone has a copy of the pregame video that we used to play, please let me know b/c I'd like to get a copy of it. If not, does anyone know if they could put something like this together?

Yes, clearly the video we played two years ago had a tremendous impact on performance this past season.
Sorry, just kidding. I couldn't resist. I agree that it was definitely a lump-in-the-throat, got-something-in-my-eye moment before each game. This year's version was not as good, though similarly themed. I expect you'll probably see something similar before games this year, but also might not be a bad idea for JTIII to consider something entirely new.
Personally, I think its about time we put the never worn out technology of morphing into our video presentations:
John Thompson...becomes...JTIII. Reggie Williams...becomes...Brandon Bowman. Patrick Ewing...becomes...Roy Hibbert. Michael Jackson...becomes...Michael Jac...??
No, on second thought, that would really suck. Never mind me.

Agreed- that is a cool logo for the hope we all feel right now and the pride we want to feel.

I think you're in my philosophy class. Who would've guessed, lol. I was constantly looking for someone this season who appreciated college basketball, but apparently all my friends are lamers. We gotta go next season!! Oh and also, this isn't my bulletin board name, i'm using a friend's so sorry for the confusion if there's any.

I'd be happy to have you join me next year, I'm in the front row at every game. I'm also hoping to get the student body in general more excited about basketball, Im currently communicating with several people about numerous things we can do to improve Hoya Blue and student support for the team. I love hearing from people like you who truly care about Georgetown Basketball, all students should show that kind of support for the team.
I'm looking forward to accomplishing some great things and experiencing the return of our basketball program to Big East and National contenders! HOYA SAXA!!!
PS-How did your paper go? haha
