Parrish (CBS sports) showing love

I'm glad were not the only ones who noticed this about the coaches poll:

Coaches poll: You know, I don't have any real big problems with the coaches poll this week. Honestly. But it seems silly that Notre Dame, at No. 21, is ranked ahead of fellow Big East member Georgetown, particularly when No. 23 Georgetown is third in the Big East standings with a 6-2 record and Notre Dame is sixth in the Big East standings with a 6-4 record.

What's more?

Georgetown has won five consecutive games. Notre Dame has lost three of its past six.

What's more (again)?

Three of the Hoyas' five overall losses were to ranked teams (at No. 6 Pittsburgh, to No. 15 Oregon and at No. 16 Duke) while only two of the Irish's five overall losses were to ranked teams. One of them was to No. 9 Butler on a neutral court. The other was -- you guessed it! -- at No. 23 Georgetown.

By 18 points.

So Georgetown should be ranked ahead of Notre Dame.

But it's just a minor complaint.

I can live with it.

Glad to see that Parrish is a HoyaTalk lurker, if not a poster.

That's great...just more fuel for the I-can't-stand-ND fire.

I still say Brey will coach ND to the bubble as February progresses. They'll need to win a game at MSG to make the NCAAs... and they won't.

I was just mentioning that last night to another hoya fan. Seems somewhat silly, these rankings.
