Re: WRGW 2024-2025

Thanks for the interview.  Good luck in your future endeavors.  It has been great having you two  “on the inside”.  Are there replacements in waiting to cover GW hoops?

Re: WRGW 2024-2025

I enjoyed the interview.  Thanks to all of you for your reporting and analysis this season.  GW may not have the journalistic chops of a Syracuse, Northwestern or Missouri, but the flip side of this is that The Hatchet and WRGW are almost entirely the exclusive sources of coverage for the program.  This means you are genuinely providing a very valuable service to a small but vested community, and you should be applauded for your efforts. 

As for the interview, it felt very nostalgic as CC talked a bit about great coaches he has met or became friendly with as well as great players who he has recruited or coached against.  CC really strikes me as a student of the game who really enjoys exchanging notes and ideas with other coaches.  He possesses that admirable combination of humility (doesn't claim to have all the answers), brains (willing to listen and learn from those he respects), and confidence (understands that the program truly has significantly improved over the 3 seasons he's been at GW).  He also expressed an interest in playing a one-off on the road against a Power 4 (or Big east) school while acknowledging that getting this type of game at Smith Center has become an impossibility.

And for some levity, I don't know which host to give credit to, but someone mentioned that he was going to be interning at Monumental Sports this summer with the hope of getting hired thereafter.  CC enthusiastically responded "talk to Jimmy (Patsos), talk to Jimmy."  To which the response was something along the lines of, 'I did.  I said one word and it (their conversation) lasted over an hour."  Very good stuff.
