Where Basketball Matters

[Jon Rothstein @JonRothstein]

Georgetown is 26-53 from three-point range in two exhibition games.

Underrated offensive team.

#BREAKING: 4-STAR SF MARRI WESLEY (@laamarri) HAS COMMITTED TO GEORGETOWN.

The 6’5”, 205-pound wing from Southeastern Prep (FL) becomes the first commit of Ed Cooley’s 2027 recruiting class.

Wesley is ranked No. 71 nationally and No. 18 among small forwards in the 247Sports Composite rankings.

An amazing first pickup for Cooley and the Hoyas.

WELCOME TO THE HILLTOP, MARRI.

Georgetown vs GW

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

The Lakers reportedly told Jalen Duren they view him as a max-level player 👀, per @sam_amick

“Duren was told by the Lakers in the meeting that they view him as a maximum-salary level player, according to the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe ongoing deliberations. The 22-year-old received a similar message of strong interest from the Sacramento Kings, who also met with Duren on Tuesday and indicated that they will continue to explore sign-and-trade scenarios to land him.”

LeBron James is one win away from becoming the winningest player in NBA history, passing Kareem, per @ClutchPoints.

He has a chance to do it tonight against the Cavaliers. Storybook.

[Coaching Changes @CoachingChanges]

If you are Boston College do you see if Ed Cooley is available minus buyout?

If you are Georgetown do you cut your losses and let him go and start fresh without having to pay a multi year buyout for someone who is not the fit?

I think the answers to both are a resounding YES!

[TheBasketBallOpinion @BasketballOP]

@HoyasAD step down with some dignity- you don’t deserve to hire another coach

[Paranoia Hoya @TheParanoiaHoya]

@GeorgetownHoops Can we get rid of @HoyaCoachCooley and @HoyasAD who was sitting behind the bench with his thumb up his ass and looking clueless as his buddy Ed shits the bed again.

[TheBasketBallOpinion @BasketballOP]

@FingerWAGHoyas Because Ed is not the guy - every win is going to delay the inevitable. For once, I want the admin to not wait three years past when a coach should have been fired

[TheBasketBallOpinion @BasketballOP]

@FingerWAGHoyas Not a serious administration or program

[Nolan @NationWideNolan]

Ewing had 4 teams that were clearly better than Ed's year 3 team. I don't know what we're doing here, this guy doesn't have it, maybe never did.
