Good to see some press for the program. Although, I didn't know this fact...  "Georgetown plays its home games at a site known simply as Multi-Sport Field, carved out of the rolling slope on the south side of campus. It is also home to the men’s and women’s lacrosse teams and is a stadium on extended delay, its funding having stalled in the middle of the last decade. It has seating, largely temporary, for just 2,500, the smallest capacity of any team’s field in either the Football Bowl or Championship Subdivisions" |

Good article, but I think it's a bit sad that I feel that have been much more substantive articles about Georgetown football in the New York Times the past few years, rather than our local Washington Post.

Nothing really new in that article. Pretty lazy effort by the NYT.

How much has really changed? I guess you could say the one glaring omission in the article is the failure to mention the changing scholarship situation in the Patriot League, and how that will affect Georgetown. |
