GIGAFAN is on his way down from CT to pick me up in NYC, and we're driving down to catch our boys take on Howard at the MCI.
After the last game, I'm more excited about this game, as I think JT III will have the boys fired up to come out and play hard on both ends. We'll find out soon.
LET'S GO HOYAS!!! BEAT HOWARD!

The one thing I'll say about the MEAC week games is that III really seems to be using them as a teaching opportunity for the team. Throughout the Norfolk State game, while the defense was oft-disastrous, the offense never really broke down, and it seemed that the team kept running offensive sets (several of which they haven't yet quite gotten the hang of).
While I'm not comfortable or happy with the end result of the NSU game (and coach wasn't either, according to some post-game quotes on Hoya Report), I would much rather have these games used to have the team work on things that will be useful in the season than to run up the score in a way that will have little bearing on the BE schedule.
So, while I think (and hope) we will win the Howard game comfortably, I don't expect there to be much more than a 15-20 margin of victory. My sense is that if and when we get a comfortable cushion, JTIII will use the opportunity to teach the team, whether that's in adding new sets on offense or defense, a focus on boxing out (which is one area that definitely has not improved enough), or getting more bench guys into the game, I prefer it to making a (weak) statement by posting a 35-point win.

Does anyone know if the Chophouse still has a good happy hour before the game - $2.50 pints and half price apps? If so, that's where I will be with a couple other alums.

Hoyas Buffaloed by BisonThe MEAC finally inherit the earth as Georgetown stumbles 127-33 at MCI Center. This loss was compounded by the fact that tonight's promotional giveaway, the worst since the infamous "Disco Demolition Night", was "Gillette Razor Wristslash Night." JTIII showed a unique substitution pattern in the second half as all hope became lost. Using various blue-wigged students from the front row, 2 tuba players, and Jonathan Wallace, the Hoyas benched all scholarship players and went with Plan B for the last 20 minutes. Surprisingly, the Hoyas opened the second half on a 15-0 run when Wallace hit 4 threes and one of the tuba players hit a lefty hooker with the hoop and the harm. How the hooker made it on the court past security is just one of many vexing questions about tonight's game. Following GU's brief outburst, the Hoyas quickly tired (especially since the band members were still toting their sousaphones) and Howard resumed control and cruised to victory. **Game photos from AP **

DoubleHoya, Nodak-those posts were hilarious.
Anyway, I think this year is probably the best year for the Hoyas to play all the MEAC teams. As TrueHoyaBlue said, JT3 uses them as teaching tools-something he probably couldn't do against Illinois or other ranked teams. Now, I'm not arguing against playing the good teams, b/c the Hoyas need the experience against good teams for BE play, but they also need a chance to learn how to run the offense, work on defense, etc against teams like Norfolk and Howard where a couple mistakes won't kill you.

Wow, Nodak. Nice to see I'm gonna get some PT.  Prediction: Georgetown 72, Howard 52. Becoming sick of these insanely close calls against less than worthy opponents, we need to show up today. |
