Since our basketball team has sucked and took a dump almost a decade ago, I understand some would like to switch topics and talk about anything else here. Not smart.
My personal beliefs are in line with Naismith (please God, I hope you aren't just another alias for the dude!).
We should just stick to whether or not we belong in the A-10 or the Patriot League, if they would have us.
Keep Raising High fellow Colonials!

If this is "great news" and the quality of player we are filling our needs with, it's going to be another mediocre season.
As someone used to say, we need Power 5 talent to compete in the A-10! Not #10-15 P-5 players who realize they want to finish out their college careers with a little more playing time.
Hopefully I am proven wrong. All I'm asking for is the type of transfer hits we used to get at GW - Zeke, Cavanaugh, Mo, etc. They are out there. CC needs to put on the sales pitch charm.

This is fake news. Similar to coaching searches, this is probably someone affiliated with Lipitz (agent) throwing his name out there with no corroboration by the Sun.
If true (hiring an AD who hasn't accomplished anything at GW because he's been here less than a year) MD is in worst shape than I thought.

Great hire. Winner everywhere he's been. Will keep the Terps moving forward. If we could ever move forward after a decade of misery maybe fans would get excited again.

Holy crap! Until now I didn’t realize Jamion Christian was posting under the name Gwmayhem!

Say's the guy who posts under various monikers along with his alter ego Dude!

Rising's post gave me a chuckle.
I remember when Dude (posting under various other names back then) was bragging about how GW's Nero was the best AD in the Country after being recognized by Under Armour after we won our first and last post season Championship only to be fired shortly after (for you know what). Keep the posts coming Dude, the reason I bother to come on this site - It's my daily dose of humor!

I was gone on our annual Christmas family trip to Vail until recently. Great time for me to unplug from the world, ski and relax with family. I do admit to reading DMV's excellent game previews and finding out the results after the game. I was able to avoid the roller coaster of comments and feelings after beating Dayton and Rhody and then losing to the Dukes on Wed. Strap in for another year of conference play. Hopefully practice this week wasn't "slow" and we can rebound from Wed.
Instead of coming back to the DMV I'm at my firms LA office helping out. We had some employees impacted by the Pacific Palisades fire. There are no words to describe what happened in both the Palisades and Altadena. It puts everything back in perspective. Stay safe and healthy everyone and be appreciative of everything you have.

I would be "in heaven" with 9 wins in conference play, regardless of the strength of the A-10 this year.

I saw the tweet/facebook message and didn't think much of it. ML's side has never changed and everything he said initially was verified by the facts that came out, starting with Nero's behavior which quickly led to his firing (or, as he put it, pursuing other opportunities) a year later in 2017. My guess is that ML has moved on and is at the next stage of his life/career. I do notice he posts on Facebook/Tweets whenever a milestone event anniversary comes around (like the NIT win, UVA win Catholic U National Championship, etc). I'm sure he's not surprised (and may even take some satisfaction) that we are continuing to struggle as a program 8 1/2 years later and a real possibility that we could be on our 5th coach in 9 years if our A-10 season is a disaster.
As for Patrick Nero, my sources tell me that he is separated/divorced from his partner he was living with in Florida, not making any income from his "consulting company" and moved back to California where he has family. I wonder if he regrets his actions from years ago. As we all know, BAD KARMA will bite you in the ass!

FQ, I've been following this team since the later Jarvis years and the fan board since the Hobbs years. Switched to the moniker "Joel Joseph"  after the debacle of 2016. I have degrees from and follow the athletic programs from 3 universities (GW, UMD, GTown). Each program has had their ups and downs.
That said, you aren't arguing with anybody. I treat you the same way I treat the dude, when you say something I don't agree with I comment (I now just ignore the dude). I'm not retired and don't spend everyday on this board like some who have thousands of posts. For your sanity, I suggest you widen your interests - just don't follow the Wizards since that won't help you!
