You could put a boat house for the crew team on that island also.

I have a brother who could not remember the phrase "bated breath", and said that he would await with" fish breath". He was 17 at the time and has not lived it down. Not sure if that answerd lic's question.

Great to see that a Philly kid is going to be a Hoya. I can't recall the last Philly player on the team. The closest I can remember was Marc Egerson and he was from Delaware but played in Pa. You would think that with AI playing in Philly for so long that we would have been able to tap into the the great talent that plays in Philly. Nova gets a few here and there and Temple, St Joes and LaSalle get some left overs but most of the stars leave the area. Georgetown seems like a good place for the player who wants to get away but is still close enough for family and friends to watch him play. It seems that until recently we didn't even recruit Philly that much. It's not like everybody else doesn't recruit in our backyard.

I think it is time for JT3 to call a press conference and announce that using the Princeton Offense was a big mistake and he will not be using it ever again. In its place he will use an up-tempo motion offense, making use of all of his players' speed, passing and shooting abilities. Learning this system will greatly increase each player's value in the NBA. It will be called the JT3 offense and while it may look like the Princeton Offense it is not. Georgetown will no longer run the Princeton Offense. (Actually, I don't think we have run it for the past 2 years)

There is a RUMOR in the Philadelphia area that Villanova is going to join the Big East Football schools. I think Dickey Weiss has heard the same rumors as he wrote an article in the NY Daily News about the possibility. www.nydailynews.com/sports/college/2010/08/03/2010-08-03_big_east_and_nova_football_a_good_fit.htmlI'm not sure how this effects us, but it appears to help the Big East overall. My question is if there is a split between football and non-football schools does loosing Nova as a non-football school hurt the non- football league?

First of all I don't think criticizing players does anybody any good. I don't for a second believe that Ohio wanted it more than we did. Our guys played as hard as they could and did the best they could -- within the system. I don't mean the offensive system. I think Thompson made some great changes in the original Princeton offense he brought here some years back to the point you would never recognize it if an announcer didn't make reference to it. We do not play a Princeton offense.
The system that has let us down, over and over is Thompson's defense. The switching allows a team that can shoot wide open threes have a field day. It also allows a team that can't shoot get a lot of second chance points.
I really don't believe the players deserve the criticize they get on the board, nor should it happen. They are students and are doing their best. A coach, any coach, however is fair game. He is being paid to win and get the best out of his players. The defensive system he used makes his players look bad. Almost always out of position, leaving wide open threes and poor rebounding. This is on the coach, not the players.

Happy Birthday Lichoya68! I can't decide if you are 68 and decided to stay 68, graduated in 68, or started Georgetown in 68, or none of the above.

School where "country roads" was written by Georgetown student: 57 subject of song 54
Note: Taffy Nivert and Bill Danoff, a Georgetown student, wrote Country Roads while a student at Georgetown. They played it for John Denver while the three were performing at the Cellar Door in 1970. The three then changed some lines and performed it for the first time in December of 1970 at the Cellar Door, a bar/club on M street in the 60s and 70s

It also results in our bigs being out of position for rebounds.

Is Monroe sick?" He is playing slow, lazy, slopy, and dumb. Poor decisions. Out of position.

Until Georgetown stops supporting that illegal (it certainly should be) scalping stub-hub, there is not much that can be done to stop one from selling their ticket. With good and sometimes large profits to be made by selling their ticket, you can't blame students and young alumni from selling theirs. I looked at stub-hub and saw that tickets for the Duke and Nova games were going for over $200. If you can't make the game, that is hard money to turn down. If all you could sell it for is face value you would be more inclined to make sure it went to a Georgetown fan. People used to get arrested for doing what stub-hub does and on top of that it is encouraged by Georgetown! Not sure if Georgetown gets a piece of the profit from stub-hub.
