    Georgetown backing out of the PK80 tournament and being replaced by DePaul.

    It's almost like Georgetown wants to suck. Apparently they only have ONE non-conference game scheduled as of August 1st. That is beyond unbelievable.

    The kind of thing a qualified, veteran coach likes to do..... Oh, wait...

    Maybe by backing out of the PK80 game, the coach is wants to create a schedule similar in substance to the first 9 non-cons from his 83-84 season:

    @ Hawaii-Hilo
    @ Hawaii-Hilo
    Morgan State
    Saint Francis
    Saint Leo
    @ DePaul
    South Carolina State
    American
    Western Kentucky

    In all honesty, they probably do wanna line the schedule with easy games to pad Ewings first year record. If you can get past how weak dropping out makes you look, its probably better for Ewing to go .500 against garbage competition than 8-24 against decent competition.

    In fairness (LOL), DePaul was a powerhouse back then. They went 27-3 that season. After they beat #3 Georgetown in that matchup, the Blue Demons jumped to #4 in the polls.

    Georgetown also went on the road that year and played a pretty damned good UNLV team.

    The people on the GTown Board are pissed.
    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

    G'town is quickly reminding me of St Johns

    Living way too far into the past

    They should have moved on from III 2 years ago. Now they are having to deal with all of the consequences.......as well as having a guy now at the helm with no D1 head coaching experience.

    Total cluster.......good luck to them....I think

    Agreed. They're like St. Johns minus the promising talent at this point.
