Re: GW vs Georgetown Game

Officially it was listed as a  sell out and the Smith was pretty packed especially the student section which looked a lot like the 1990s

The announced attendance was 4200+ though and the venue has had crowds of over  5000 in the past.  Think we get even more in the house this year

Re: GW vs Georgetown Game

Game now officially a sell-out. Gee, you might get the impression that it would be Box Office Boffo to make this a regular season game. I wonder if those chickeshits at the Evil Empire understand that?

They understand that if we are ever to play a regular season game it will always be a Georgetown home game and they will control all the revenue. Same as it always was.

Just between you and me, I hope they get infected with a strain of something that over the years has developed a resistance to penicillin.

Re: GW vs Georgetown Game

There's an actual game in less than 48 hours and since I don't know whether it is or is not in DMVPiranha's contract to prepare exhibition game previews, I thought I'd get the ball rolling.  Someone put together their top 250 transfers for the upcoming season and while we have two names on this list (Terrance in about the 180's and Omari in around the 220's), the Hoyas have three players in the top 103.  The most highly regarded is Jaland Lowe, a 6' 2" guard transferring in from Kentucky.  His season ended prematurely due to shoulder surgery but he was at Pitt the prior two seasons where as a sophomore, he averaged 16.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.8 steals while starting every game he appeared in.  Next up is Vyctorius Miller, a 6' 5" transfer from Oklahoma State where he started 26 of the 32 games he appeared in, averaging 10.8 points per game.  This will be three schools in three years for Vyctorius having begun his career at LSU.  The third is Josiah Parker, the reigning AAC freshman of the year while playing at Florida Atlantic.  He's a 6' 7", 234 pound forward who had 15 double-doubles, averaging 9.6 points and 6 rebounds in just 21.2 minutes of action per game.  

The Hoyas also have some returnees including 7' 1" (of course they have a 7 footer) Vince Iwuchukwu who had stops at USC and St. Johns before joining Gtown last season.  His numbers were fairly modest (11.6 points, 6.1 rebounds) but he also battled through injuries last year, missing 10 games.  Caleb Williams is a memorable name not just for the obvious reasons but also because he torched GW from 3 during last year's exhibition, a shooting night that was likely not replicated during the season. 

Fortunately, Jeremiah Williams, the guy who seemingly wanted to fight every GW player who looked his way last year, has departed.  However, there will be one more familiar looking face on the Georgetown bench (or near it) as Greg Collucci has joined Ed Cooley's staff as General Manager.

Re: GW vs Georgetown Game

For any of you that are interested, the Wake Forest site has the box score from their exhibition game against Georgetown.  Hopefully our length will have an impact on their 3-point %.
