I'd say friends and immediate family members. I am bringing 10 people, so at least 10!

Me and my college housemate. Also former work colleague and his 10-year old son who is just excited to see a basketball game at the Verizon Center. That's 4 more! We're up to 17!

With Howard being an in-town team, guessing it won't be as bad as it could've been. Going with 6,500 as my guess.

Two here. We need a few games to rebuild confidence. A few comments, LIke many others I was disappointed by their performance in Hawaii. Upon further reflection-- Point guard. Mosley has to play most of the minures at guard. He is the first true point guard we have had in a long time. His turnovers were not all his fault as team mates looked like they were on a Metro platform waiting for a train. His scoring? The last TRUE point guard to scored well at the start of his freshman year? Michael Jackson. POY in DC. Knocked down 31 at the Carrier Dome. He will be fine. Trey and Mulmore are not really point guards Rebounding: Huge deficiency and noted by most during pre-season discussioins. Without Marcus Derrickson we are in trouble, Hope for Govan- he is stil a very young physically ijmmature guy. Agau-more mobility every game but incredibly hard for a basketball player, unlike footbaall, to return from an ACL repair in this short a period of time. Copeland? Playing at the top of the press maybe wearing him out . I just don't know. The BIG Guy -he will rebound and score if he gets the ball close in to the basket Scoring This year we have two true scoreers in Peak and Rodney. Need anaother reliable outside shooter and someone with some length who can handle the ball and shoot from the wing. Who is that ? Everyone hoping Copeland. Lost now. Give him some time. Hayes will be ok down low PLUSES Fouling and free throw shooting Minus ON ball defense and rebounding. Coacing After watching Georgetown basketball since 1964 and having endured the Jack Magee era ( 3-23) if the "coaching cognoscenti" on this board think they can recruit another topline coach to come to GU with its limited resources( can't compete with Xavier, Creighton,Butler, Nova, et al) they are nuts. Thompson leaves we become the long term DePaul of the BE Sorry

Thompson leaves we become the long term DePaul of the BE Sorry First, JT3 is not a "topline coach" now or when he got to GU. He came in because his father is JT2 and he had been successful at Princeton and the Ivy League. Would he have been considered if his last name was not Thompson? Second, what are you talking about when you mention "limited resources" at GU? Did you know that only 9 universities spend more in basketball than GU and that JT3 is Top 10 among highest paid coaches?

I think this is the game that JT3 can use to get Ike out of the slump. Start him and play him for 40 mins or until he fouls out. Everyone should cheer him towards a double-double. Ike needs all the confidence-building that he can get.
I haven't checked if it was his frosh season, soph or both, but he sucked in the first half of the season, only to come back and have an all-big east some team season. This year we cannot wait that long. I'm definitely grasping at straws too.

What resources does Nova have that we now don't that allowed them to win it all?

What exactly is so-called limited resource? Are they short-changing the budget? No. Too tough on admissions? No. Not paying the coach? No. Not promoting the team? No.

Reggie Cameron is suited up. Guess speculation about him being off the team is incorrect. Good to see.

Who would have thought that Georgetown cannot compete with Xavier, Creighton, Butler and Nova when it comes to resources.

Miller is attacking the hoop like a pitbull. I commented earlier in this thread about Howard's injured high-scoring guard James Daniel being their superstar player, but James Miller is the one looking like a superstar in this game. He has about half of Howard's points, and a highlight-reel dunk over a Georgetown player.

It's gonna be a long season. It's time to scrap the press because the players aren't instinctual defensively, have to simplify the defensive scheme.
