Reminder that Towson's head coach is a former GWU women's basketball assistant coach - Laura Harper - under Jen Rizzotti.  Her dad was a former GW men's basketball player - Havriland Harper.

How many knew they were formerly the C-Brass?  I didn't.

Not a difficult decision.

While your point is relevant, for a 1 year rental I don't think this matters as much.  Keithgreene has it right, Georgetown cut a bigger check for his services.

Let's give Cooley some credit for out-recruiting CC.  I wonder how Maximus feels about this.

Received an offer today from Notre Dame.

The Smitty will be relatively full, but my guess is 60% by VCU fans.

And thus, our new moniker has been born - the Cardiac Colonials!

Mike and his wife and family are very religious people.  Sometimes your religious beliefs can paint your behaviors.  I'm not saying that is the case, just saying it is possible.  I've heard from others over the years that Mike had a tendency to press his religious beliefs onto others.  He never did it with me, so I can't say that is factual.

One day we all need to sit down over drinks and hash through this.  The author of the Deadspin article is a friend of mine and we have had SEVERAL discussions about the article itself, not the facts or circumstances. I find it incredulous that Mike Lonergan brought NOTHING on himself through his behaviors and his ideologies.

I loved him as a coach.

Keithgreene stop being a Nero apologist. I have given more money to GW and the hoops program that I care to think about. We all have a voice and can have our opinions.
Nero literally ruined this program single handedly. Here we are almost 7 years later and he's still the topic of conversation. This discussion will stop only when our program is brought back from the hell hole and we start to win again (and when he stops making the news). I said long ago it would take a decade. Time is proving me right.

You certainly put the double-ess in a-double-ess-hole!

I never enjoyed Skittles candy.  They always left a sour taste in my mouth.
