Why the heck is this Georgetown at DePaul game on so late?

[scoscox]

Imagine if PC hasn’t sucked in the non con. Crazy good work by Ed in the last month or so.

Some of you guys have such a mid major attitude. You guys gotta get over this

HELLO. WELCOME TO THE BIG EAST! The only thing that matters is winning your league games

That’s all well and good but if a bunch of other teams didn’t play well in the non conference, then it wouldn’t a major conference, so calling this a mid major attitude makes no sense. If pc played well in the nonconference we could have been an 8 bid league this year

Congrats Nova. You are officially our kryptonite.

Dash... tough one, was really surprised by X's intensity(lack thereof). Nova was ripe to be had today with the abysmal 3 shooting-particularly Gillespie. Some of that was because of the decision to put Marshall on him. He had a hard time getting open looks early on. But then even missed wide-open threes, which was surprising. But putting Marshall on Gillespie left someone else to cover Bey and obviously there was no one on the team that could. I couldn't believe they kept Carter on him for so long. It was such a mismatch. And then anytime Tandy was in Justin Moore would post him up. Was a pretty obvious game plan.

. Cintas is an amazing venue. It is one of my favorites. And just an unbelievable on campus experience. You guys should be very proud of it. We were on the upper level first row and had phenomenal seats. People were incredibly friendly and had a wonderful time. Interacting with folks. Pretty decent turnout of Nova fans, too.

Didn't make it to Dana's, just a crazy amount of people there. And honestly didn't want to fight the crowd. Did go to Zip's cafe. You are right double cheeseburger and fries was the way to go! Thanks for the suggestion. And we're probably going to hit a couple of breweries tonight.

If you make it to Philly or to New York and are looking for some suggestions, Reach Out be happy to return the favor.

Chap, I thought we played with intensity especially defensively. Holding nova to 64, Gillespie to 2, and 25% shooting from 3 is no small feat. We weren’t aggressive enough going to the basket and didn’t finish well enough when we got there and that was the difference

Glad you had a good experience at cintas. We’re lucky to have such a great venue

Thanks Chap.

Honestly, I think yet another coaching transition has set us back a little bit. I believe Travis Steele is the answer for the long term and that he needs his opportunity to recruit his players and develop from there, but coaching transitions are murder on a program.

You guys are clearly talented - more talented across-the-board. And your culture is such that it doesn’t matter which venue you find yourself in; you guys go after it regardless of that.

Thanks for your comments about the Cintas Center. We are proud of it and it truly is a great facility.

Finally, I’m glad you enjoyed the cheeseburger, and I will ping you for suggestions for New York City for my next trip! My daughter is an orthopedic surgeon, finishing up at PENN and on her way to Rothman in Philly. Perhaps you can buy me a beer to cry in the next time I come up to see her.

Nice win DePaul, nice crowd at Wintrust.

close to an eliminating loss for Georgetown, especially given their remaining schedule with 3/4 ranked opponents left- and then Xavier. With only 15 wins right now, probably need 3 wins still. Or 2 and then 2 in the BET(esp given they're almost certain now to play on Wed).

Nice road W Nova, but that was not enjoyable...like visual quicksand, especially X in the 1st half. 21 measly points with the last 5 minutes being hot garbage. Bey did a lot of damage but J Moore was the key to the 9 point halftime lead that would be the difference in the game. I love watching the freshman and this guy plays like a senior.

Gotta say our freshman Tandy has had a lot of "wow" moments himself lately. Don't see many guys staying in front of him when driving to the rim....that first step is a blurr.

Moore was abusing him on the other end, but I think that will just be a freshman problem for a dude who wasn't really expected to defend in high school.
