Hoya f---ing Saxa!

That felt so good. You'd think that Syracuse would learn to not schedule commemorative events when they play the Hoyas.

Last game at Manley, dedication of boehiem court, Carmelo jersey retirement, and now pearl commemoration all Hoya wins!

Great win by Georgetown, 4 straight wins against Syracuse to end Boeheim's career and GU is starting to put together a decent resume.

Good start so far for the league. Butler W would be a real statement win. Even a split of that and X-Wake would be nice, but if the Dawgs beat IU I think people will start to appreciate how deep this league is.

Cuse has lost a lot of its luster since going to the ACC. Yes they made the Final Four last year but they really weren't that good, they just got hot at the right time. They weren't a top 10 team the entire season like they used to be. G'Town has 4 straight wins vs. Cuse and SJ has 2 straight wins vs. Cuse. Also fun to point out that SJ beat UConn the last 2 games they played each other. It's really fun to watch these programs decline since the breakup, because we were always told by Cuse/UConn fans that they "carried" the Big East completely. Well, now the little brothers of the C7 are beating their heads in and our league is very successful. Boeheim is also not getting any younger and will be out soon, but at least they're in a major conference unlike UConn.

I do think this makes it close to impossible for my Johnnies to beat Cuse though...can't see us beating them 3x in a row especially with them coming off a loss.

Boeheim has set his retirement for after next season. Good riddance.

Very happy for you guys.

Welcome back to the land of the living.

Seriously, what was it with the early year performance: team chemistry, something else?

Either way, congrats and well done.

I think a lot of it was chemistry integrating new parts. I also think we're bad against the press. It cost us the Maryland game and that loss carried over to the Arkansas st game. I think another big thing was We played Maryland Tuesday, Arkansas St Thursday then left for Hawaii and played 3 straight days in Hawaii. No time to practice and learn and change from what we learned. After that we've had some time off to practice and work on things and we've become a much better team.
