It was the definition of a fluke. Covid and injuries made things weird.

Kevin Willard is a clear upgrade for Maryland. They are much better coached now. Willard will get better players than he ever got at Seton Hall. That’s a tough place to recruit.

This is why it’s a bad idea to hire former players. Ewing’s legacy is ruined. Recent history trumps all and the majority of fans never saw him play. They watched him make Georgetown the laughingstock of CBB. And that will be his legacy.

They definitely got ran off. Don’t insult these kids’ intelligence. When they are told they don’t figure to crack the lineup the following year, they know they aren’t wanted. They can do the math, these kids can read the tea leaves. But when a coach brings it to their attention, it becomes uncomfortable to stay somewhere the coach doesn’t want you.
Georgetown isn’t unique in this, a lot of programs do this. It’s so far down the list of issues with the program, it doesn’t deserve this much attention. But let’s not pretend like Ewing’s character is above this.

It’s not just wins and losses. It’s about playing good basketball. That’s what these metrics incorporate. So beating LaSalle wasn’t really a step forward. They are not good, and we did not look good. At the end of the day, it’s about making the tournament. And we don’t even have hope. That takes all the fun out of watching this team.

We blew a 20 point lead to LaSalle? Wow.

Ewing is not a leader of men. That’s what coaching is about. There is no buy in. There are serious flaws with his style, identity and recruiting. But at the end of the day, he’s not a leader, he doesn’t inspire confidence in anyone. Not the players, alums, or fan base.

Maryland up 24 at the half on a real good St. Louis team. New coach Willard has completely changed their identity. And they moved on from a coach who took them to the tournament most years.
Get the right coach here and Hoyas can be fun again. But not til then. I’d love Steve Forbes if he were a possibility.

Outscored by 28 in one half.

Yeah Murray sure is an upgrade over Aminu! Not even close. A lot of people bad mouthed Aminu in favor of the shiny new toy. They both played last year, one guy was clearly better. It wasn’t Murray.

There’s no path to us being a good team. I mean Coppin State and Loyola Marymount? These are god awful teams.

Don’t want to hear how Murray is an upgrade over Aminu anymore. Aminu posted much better numbers despite being the focal point of the offense. Even if Aminu was having a bad offensive game, he never quit on defense, always played hard, hustled. Murray not so much. The constant pouting is tiresome.

These are two bottom of the conference teams no question. Just awful basketball.

Coppin State is so much worse than all of those teams. I guess some people think all mid to low majors are of the same quality. That’s like saying Coppin State almost beating Georgetown is like almost beating Kentucky.

Is an overtime loss a point like hockey? It’s objectively worse than losing against a mid major if you believe metrics matter.

Murray has had an atrocious game after a good start.

We were picked 10th for a reason. I’m not a Harris fan at all, but I’m still perplexed at all the people that said Primo is a clear upgrade.
