Take the win and offer no apologies

It's time to "reconfigure" the Big East again. The NCAA will probably require that we wait until the end of the season. We will have to pay other conferences to take our rejects, so this will not be cheap.

You can't whine about the Big East OOC performance and then say 'ugh' that Butler won.

He can't help it. He's a compulsive whiner.

Promotion/Relegation with the A10?

Or poach some good teams from other conferences. We should have taken Gonzaga while they were available.

I appreciate any help you offer. I'm open to Canadian teams. Maybe the BE can buy a underperforming NBA team and convert it into a college team.

My ughhhh was about Providence.

I love seeing providence get made to look like fools

 Butler has a solid starting lineup . Glad to see them putting a much needed win on the board.

Providence getting stomped by an A-10 is not helpful to the Big East Cause

Not so fast. They got it down to 12. 63-51 with under 6 minutes to go. They're gonna win this one after all.

Hurts Marquette's Sagarin ratings

Hurts my eyes to watch them.

Providence's Lunardi position rapidly and worryingly dropping.

My advice?  Don't watch them

Oh, now you're an advisor, huh? I'm a masochist, so I will watch them every chance I get.

Valpo @ DePaul tomorrow, courtside seats under $100 on Seat Geek. I know it's winter break but still.

After the disappointment from a couple years ago when they had a one loss non con I don't think the price will jump till they prove it in conference

They're only paying people $100 apiece to sit courtside? No thanks!

I picked up a couple of 3rd row, center section, aisle seats for $25 for the DePaul Valpo game today. It's going to take everything in me not to wear MU gear.

It's difficult to sell any tickets on this weekend. At least DePaul has some ownership in Wintrust Arena so they're not paying market rate to rent an arena for thousands of empty seats as is the case in Washington and Newark.

DFW Hoya, your posts on Georgetown are both informative and depressing.  I really hope you guys turn it around under Cooley not only for your sake, because you seem like a great fan, but for the conference brand going forward as well. 

Prov down 10 at half.

But don't worry, some national basketball analyst will tweet something like "Walter Clayton is the most underrated guard in the sport"

And 100 prov fans will comment to respect some trash can prov player

It's not meant to be depressing but there are a number of headwinds facing the Georgetown program, and a presidential search (the first since 2000) adds an layer of uncertainty. The previous administration was very accommodating to men's basketball (and to coaching salaries) and there is no guarantee the next one will be as generous.

2025 marks ten years since Georgetown's last Associated Press ranking and 10 years since it received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Within that stretch, one winning season. That's 10 years of young alumni and future donors with a poor customer experience and less likely to be there for the long haul. They've moved on with their lives and basketball isn't as important anymore.
