The main thing I want to see from this team is that they are ready to compete, hustle, win the 50-50 ball. Yesterday, in the second half some of the players were walking back . This tell you a lot between the relationship of the players and the coach. It is unacceptable that these players embarrass the Georgetown tradition, their University and their coach. I think that JTIII has lost control of these players. Can you even imagine the margin on rebounds from last night game. It is completely unacceptable . I'm embarrassed that you're a fellow fan of this University. No one embarrassed the "Georgetown tradition" (whatever the hell that means) last night. Embarrassing the school is when don't go to class and drop out, or when you cheat, or when you're sanctioned by the NCAA. Look at Syracuse or Louisville or Nova if you want to looks at schools being embarrassed. In the meantime, take your holier-than-thou attitude elsewhere.

Not sure the Mosely 3-ball stat is correct. Didn't he shoot 0-6 in a single game?

Not sure the Mosely 3-ball stat is correct. Didn't he shoot 0-6 in a single game? Mosley has been a disaster in terms of his shooting. He is 0/7 from 3 pt range, shooting 28% overall from the field (very poor considering many of his shots are drives to the basket) and only 63% from the FT line. Yes, he makes assists and limits turnovers, but on a team with such limited options from the outside, the poor shooting of Mosley hurts as much as his presence otherwise helps. The same is true for Mulmore, Tre, Kaleb and Copeland right now.

Yeah our offensive weapons are really limited right now. We work best when we are in transition. But to do that you need to rebound . . .

Doesn't scoring from the FT line contribute to your total score? That's literally the only production we're getting out of all three guards. Not sure Mosley is that superior defensively either. Of course, and that's the offensive case for Mulmore.

I think we all need a hug. I'm guessing I'll need at least a couple during this next game. #HugsforHoyas

Fwiw, Mulmore has probably driven to the basket and finished or got fouled 10+ times than Mosley and Campbell combined. He's also probably hit more free throws and he has a tighter handle than both....I don't get why we're not baptizing him through fire. I thought the same exact thing. Campbell is not a PG. The only time he should play is at the 2 spot and see if he can capture anything close to the Xavier game. If his jumper is off, which it usually is, then he shouldn't play.

I am new to this board. I have been a huge Hoya fan since 1989. I have supported JTIII since he came to GTOWN. My question to everyone is why have we lowered the bar so much for our program. I do not think this program will ever be a recruiting hot spot as long as he is our coach. He took Coach Esherick's recruits to the Final 4. That is a fact. We are never mentioned by top 5 recruits anymore. We have a great location and we are constantly being beaten out by other coaches for kids in our area. We need a HC that can recruit at an elite level. That is how you become an elite program. You have to recruit great players. If we do make a change I hope that we consider Nate James. He is recruiting at a high level at Duke. He has familiarity with the area having attended HS in Maryland. He is Coach K's main recruiter. He is an associate HC at one of the best programs in the nation. I hope he is considered if there is a vacancy. Folks we are almost a mid major now. This is breaking my heart.

Jeff Capel is the associate head coach at Duke and much more qualified at another shot than James' first one.
If we went up and coming assistant, I prefer Chris Caputo of Miami. Already has recruited DC extremely well.
My list still consists of: Kevin Keatts, King Rice, Danny Hurley, Will Wade..never know if a guy like Chris Collins sees a ceiling at a place he's at and would be open to change.
There are options. And this current coach should be fired.

Everyone in NC knows that Jeff Capel is waiting in for Coach K to retire. That's the job he wants. I would have no problem with Chris Collins becoming our coach. I don't understand why you are against Nate James. Kansas hired a nobody assistant coach back in 1988. He was the 3rd assistant coach. His name was Roy Williams.

Tonight was the first time since I started following this program in the early 80's that I cut the game off simply because it pained me to watch what was happening.
Gut-wrenching to see what this program has become.
I can't possibly fathom how someone could watch this game and feel like we can do worse with a coaching change. This is about as bad as it gets.

I think this thread needs to be deleted. Let's keep this board civil.

I think there's better options. Fact he got demoted to make room for Capel in the past would cause me to hesitate

KChoya, I miss your comments during the OK State game. You should be very proud, Georgetown only had 28 turnovers, OK State only scored 97 points and we only lost by 27 points. This is nothing to be embarrass about. We are playing great , the best basketball ever. Looking forward for your enlightened about the future of Georgetown Basketball.

The man is a good person but incompetent coach.
If that is the standard for Georgetown basketball........we deserve this.

Incoming excuses: Wisconsin is a top 20 team so our loss tonight was inevitable! Since we beat Oregon, that victory should keep JT3 immune from criticisms for rest of the season! Hoya Saxa! According to Eagle54, losing to a higher ranked team is perfectly okay. Pretty soon that's all we'll be doing based on where we'll be ranked so should be okay.

A sad day in Mudville for the pro-Thompson, pro-basketball program lovers club.
