(Perspectives After the Jump)

Star-divide

View from the Student Section - A Perspective from Campus:

I traveled to the Big East Tournament last year, waste of a Spring Break, unless your definition of an awesome vacation is watching your chances of post-season glory bounce off the side of the backboard.  So now I have decided to watch the BET from the satellite-equipped cabana outside my awesome hotel in the Bahamas.  

To say I want revenge on the Bulls is an understatement.  Not only did they embarrass us at home, right after our victory against Duke, but the vision of that empty student section will haunt me forever.  And then Dominque Jones had the audacity to taunt us.  No, I did not come to see him play, and I shall not be sipping on casual pina coladas during the game for his sake.  They are to help me drown out the shrieks of the nearby sorority girls from [insert school not named Georgetown] as they marvel over their tans, the same tans that eight hours from now will make me so glad I am not in New York.  As a wise man who writes this blog once told me, you're only in college once.  Hoya Saxa, beat the Bulls.

View from the Court Side Seats - A Perspective from OldHoya:

Not a lot to like about this USF squad after the beatdown they threw on the Hoyas last time around. From the beginning, that was one of the worst performances the Hoyas have had this year.

This new "everyone plays" series for the Big East Tournament prevents most people from making it to the game - and OldHoya is disappointed that he won't make the trip this year. To prevent any sort of jinx, OldHoya will sandbag all memories of the finals and other games until we see how this year's team acclimates - suffice it to say that last year was not a happy memory, summed up well with Greg Monroe's "tweet" yesterday: "i know exactly how the players from UConn feel....that was us a year ago...." (OldHoya might not be the most tech savvy but his henchmen point him in the right direction - what the hell is a Twitter anyway?)

Back to USF - OldHoya acknowledges that Mrs. OldHoya is filled with more vitriol than he is but he has one wish for how this game opens as he'd like someone to pin Dominique Jones's first shot against the backboard. OldHoya's restrained himself over the course of the season but he hates that MF and did not come to seem him play.

View from the Sportsbook (via DonBest) - A Perspective from Vegas:

The Line: Georgetown -6.5.  Over/Under 135.5.

This line is scary scary scary.  I'm going to take the Hoyas -6.5 here because I think (read: HOPE) JT3 will have them focused enough not to overlook these guys again ahead of a potential war with Cuse on Thursday.  USF played extremely sloppy against DePaul, and if it turns the ball over against Georgetown like that the Hoyas shouldn't have a problem stabbing the Bulls in the heart with spears.  That being said, Dominique Jones sacres the bejesus out of me.  That's right, BEJESUS. 

Final Score: Hoyas 74 - Bulls 63.

Y'all came to see Dominique Jones go home.

On the Season:

Casual Hoya is 18-7 ATS

How does Dominique Jones average like 6 rebounds a game

the guy is 6’4." That’s one aspect (among many) of his game that is frickin nuts.

No way Wesley Johnson should have been BE player of the year. Jones (and Butler) clearly far better than him. I’d also say Reynolds, Monroe, and Freeman are better than him. Hell, maybe even Herb Pope.

should have been reynolds
maybe if he'd hit that shot vs WVU...
yeah w/ the game on the line, I'd want me Desean Butler

over Reynolds

let's go out there...

and win this one for corey haim.

south florida all over the news today...
Season two of the popular MTV reality show JERSEY SHORE will film in Florida, according to the Miami Herald. The production company behind the show has been scouting locations in Miami since last month, as TMZ first reported.

A source close to the show tells TMZ they will begin filming before the month is out.
are they still calling it jersey shore?

Or are they doing it CSI style – JS: Miami

I'm wearing my "We Are Georgetown" shirt under my work clothes.
funny, I am wearing

MY JAHIDI THONG TO THE GAME:

Ditto
Was your "ditto" to the shirt or that sultry thong?
Wouldn't YOU like to know?

Slash, if you’ll look, I nested properly enough to answer that question.

Still bears checking on
Y'all came to see Dominique Jones go gome.

Quote of the day

Huge Hoya win if...

Jones has less than 20 pts.

Chris Wright takes less than 5 threes and has more than 5 assists.

Georgetown bench got fired up from watching last night and Hollis scores 38 points.

I want Jerelle to prove he belonged on SI's College Hoops home page
Only the Chris Wright thing might actually happen

weird thing about wright is he was a 3 point shooting champ in HS, not sure why his 3-ball is so mediocre now.

line moved back since then

might be part of it

Seems to me

His legs have worn down as the year has gone on, shot is a lot more flat and stuff. Assume Hire Esherick will go on the internet and google why this is wrong, but that’s my 2 cents

your 2 cents is worthless
guys, come on

not in front of the kids

We're having issues

But that’s no excuse for bringing it into the home

I know you are but what am I
i learned it from watching you, dad! or in this case, Hire
I want

MSG Potato Knishes!!!!

YES!

One of the greatest only-locally-available arena foods of all time.

Today should be interesting

If we win I’ll be sober at work and if we lose I’ll be committing hari kari with a letter opener.

GM TWorld

Gameday…Pray Hard Play Hard…LLLLLEGGGGGOOOOOOOOO

actual GM tweet?

or your interpretation?

What I believe we will see in the near future

Based on previous results

He had another tweet slamming haters hatin who couldnt come close to doing what he does

I felt bad

But we're much better at blogging than they are

And they hate on us for that. ITS HYPOCRISY

was that tweet to us or some of the nba draft reports coming out

chad ford had a report saying he was good but soft

I'm going to assume it was Ford

Considering we are just lowly bloggers.

WHO RUN THE BIGGEST SITE IN THE WORLD

i get the sense a lot of "haters" tweet at him too

he had one where he said “i’m on here to have fun, don’t say things you wouldnt say to my face”

That tweet had nothing to do with us

Look at this exchange:

OaklandZoo: The last Big East center to block me was @HasheemTheDream. So maybe @G_Monroe10 will have a nice career in the NBA D-League. (16 hours ago)

G_Monroe10: I just love it when ppl who can’t even come close to doin what u r talented in have something to say. It only (cont) http://tl.gd/f4nsg (15 hours ago)

We must destroy the Oakland Zoo

Oh wait, we already did

oh that's awesome
stupid question...who is oakland zoo?
the student section for pitt
cool...was thinking one of their players used that moniker on twitter, by bust
I'm currently talking shit to him via Casual Hoya Twitter

NO ONE MESSES WITH OUR PLAYERS EXCEPT US

you can ask, away from Dejuan Blair, to some extent, to name one Pitt player

that has an ounce of success in the NBA. D-League is a dream for those fukn losers.

It's getting ugly on Twitter
40 minutes of hell...
y'all came to see greg monroe play
his last game at MSG

At least until whoever drafts him plays the Knicks.

:(

Y'all Came to WORSHIP JAHIDI

what this game means

a win and i think hoyas assure themselves of at minimum a 5 seed in the Dance

a loss and i think a 6 seed likely and 7 seed is in play depending on how other conference tourneys shake out.

I don't care about our seed so much as

1. playing against the 4th seed, whether that is Duke or whoever. That would be a great draw.
and
2. not playing in Syracuse.

I'd rather a 6 than a 4 or 5

Would much rather see a 3 and 2 than have to play a 1 in the sweet 16 because i think the 1s (cuse, kentucky and kansas) are far better than the rest of the teams in the country

I'd rather take it one game at a time

and take care of the business at hand… rather than hypothesize 2 to 3 games away…

Didn’t we have enough of that during the regular season?

We’re the only 9 loss team in the top 25….

This blog is about

Huge, unverified claims, rampant speculation, sweeping generalizations, and random hypotheses.

WHAT DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND

agree

so many things outside our control change our seed and where we play.

win today, lose tomorrow

and we’ll be the only 10 loss team in the top 25 come monday.

and we will still be

one of only a handful of teams to have beaten 5 top 25 rpi teams.

with the best SOS

wins more impressive

Best Tattoo

One of my friends has the kool aid man on his ass

Tramp Stamp for men?
kind of weird, right?

Whats the significance?

None

Completely strange. Was intoxicated one night and thought of it, decided he wouldn’t talk himself out of it, and got it the next day.

Absolutely bizarre, but hilarious for the rest of us

We're laughing at you, not with you

That will be an interesting explaination to his kids some day.

“Daddy? Why can’t we buy some Kool Aid, you have his face on your bottom.”

he drank the kool aid and got a dumb ass tattoo.

Chad Ford on Greg Monroe
Stock up

Monroe has seen his draft stock jump around wildly this season. He started the season ranked No. 5 on our Big Board, then plunged early as NBA talent evaluators savaged him for being passive and seemingly out of shape.

The second half of the season, Monroe has been on fire and is slowly winning back supporters. In his past 10 games, Monroe has averaged 18.5 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists. Most importantly, he’s been consistent for the first time in his college career. Night in and night out, Monroe has been playing hard and making an impact on both ends of the floor.

While it’s unlikely Monroe will be able to crack the top five again, he now looks like he is solidly in the lottery and could be in the top 10 on draft night if he declares. While Monroe lacks the elite athleticism and motor to be an NBA superstar, his offensive skills and unselfishness should give him a long career in the league.
Unclear if an ounce of work will be done this week
Actually

I’d say its pretty clear that you won’t do any.

Nope

It’s pretty clear that we don’t get much done during regular weeks during basketball season. There is no evidence whatsoever that we get anything done on game days. Ergo, absolute cessation of productivity should probably just be assumed for this week, if not all of March.

Our employers should really budget for these things.

Hire Esherick

Be a good dog and go search the internet for stats in productivity drop off in March due to the NCAA tournament

wouldnt it be easier for you to make it up?
I think it's like $1bn
It's not.

     March 8 (Bloomberg) — College basketball’s men’s
tournament may cost U.S. employers as much as $1.8 billion in
unproductive wages during the first week of action, according to
an annual survey by Chicago-based placement firm Challenger,
Gray & Christmas Inc.

I'm part of a STAT!

Four Courts in Courthouse at lunch…not sure yet if I’m doing the whole game orrrrr just the second half.

BTW

Watched the Three Clinic against Nova in said establishment two years ago. Doing my part for our mojo.

Starting at noon today

I expect to get about 12 oz of “productivity” done

SO MANY POINTS!

I am taking them. ALL OF THEM, and putting my 15-10 ATS record on the line with SOUTH FLORIDA +6.5. I guarantee you that there will be some kind of shot during garbage time at the end of this game that directly effects betting outcomes.

Lordnick= the dark side of the force

only less cool.

The Numbers Speak

From the wizards at prospectus: Shot selection and lineup efficiencies – regular season wrap

At this point, the only player with anything resembling a mid-range game is Chris Wright (40% on 2-pt jumpers). Austin Freeman, who most fans cite as the player with the best mid-range shot, actually has the worst shooting percentage of the regulars.

Wright and Greg Monroe are about equally likely to make a 3FG, but Wright shoots nearly as many as Freeman and Jason Clark. At this point, his game reminds me a lot of senior Dominic James, although Chris is bigger and stronger. He’s also got one more summer and season to either improve his shooting mechanics or become more selective.

Freeman gets it done from behind the arc or driving to the rim. I think people are starting to understand what a devastating offensive force he really is – he’s the player I always thought Darrel Owens would become.

I’ll bet Greg Monroe’s shooting percentages will go up across the board his junior season. I’d like to be proven correct.

I often criticize Jason Clark for not driving to the basket more often, but his shooting percentage on layups shows that this isn’t necessarily a good option. Perhaps he needs to add some more strength.

Julian Vaughn, in contrast to Monroe, goes for the dunk when possible. Throw it down, big fella.

is it just me or are our layup percentages crazy low?
Every time you post the Hoya Prospectus stuff

My eyes glaze over a sentence in.

I am so pathetic

funny
I’ll bet Greg Monroe’s shooting percentages will go up across the board his junior season
At stout

Working on my 2nd guiness… I love the big east tournament

JEALOUS

There is a reassuring black glass in my future.

we're starting to draw closer to WVU...

yikes http://www.msg.com/collegehoops/big-east-poll-2010.html

WVU starting to get closer to us...

wade needs to work his magic again

I'm still laughing about their email....

we ‘galvanized the fan base’ alright

The Plan Was to Let WVU Come Back

Only to put the voting contraption back on line at the end of the week to smoke them.

This is still the plan… right…?

i like that plan
Also what if they have their own hillybilly version of Wade Tandy?
Not Possible

Wade is from Kentucky, so a hillbilly version of him already exists. And it’s him.

american idol

that bowersox girl clearly the one to beat in what is easily the worst season in recent memory

I'm a big Lee Dewyze guy
Agree

Other than bowersox and maybe 1 or 2 others, the women were awful last night

IS IT NOON YET?
Almost

Sims is probably beside himself with encouraging energy and/or tweets..

After 3 cups of coffee this morning

I feel the same way. My boss already asked what was wrong

I can't take it any longer

Get me to 12:00

over 100 comments

Do you think we're antsy?

or just come to see Dominique Jones play?

trying to think of a reason to watch this game
I'm scared and horny

Is this what it feels like when you lose your virginity?

Why don't you know?

Oh, right, you were passed out in the RRI hallway when it happened.

you're a worse person than previously thought
Yes

Hoyajoker not nice

No need to fear...Hollis Thompson will score 100 points

Not good layup Chris

Funny they show Grand Central

When at Penn Station

I try not

not to listen to these commentators

these playthings had a better spring break than Hire Eshrick ever did!!!

I dont like all the

TO’s right now, thats what doomed us the last time we played these clowns

Quick Hook for Julian

Coach saw the same thing that we did

Wright with 5 quick points
and then takes awful jumper

quick points go to his head

Y'all came to see Dominique Jones turn it over
please tell me he just got an offensive
dammit CW
CW not bogged down

anyone see his tweet yesterday about gallons and mouths . . ? very aggressive

Defense looks phenomenal

Which is the key to our season

CW means business

He’s terrifying me

I'm not watching...

Is he being wrecking ball? or like good hurricane?

He's out of control

but it’s working

its not out of control

if it goes in

Chris Wright

About to put half of Hoya Nation in cardiac arrest.

Nice layup Jerrelle
OMG Stop Chris

That absurd off balance layup attempt pushed me to the limit.

I'm ok with it

Setting the tone for aggressiveness

Chris - slow it down and work the O

PLEASE!!!

Re-read that. Kind of amazing.

No . . . NO . . . YEEESSSS!!!

one of our keys is limiting second chance points?

that doesnt seem to be something we ever keyed on

sparse crowd

In the arena.

Casual appearances by sleepy and THE OFFICIAL BAR OF THE GLOBAL PHENOM @ Stout.

Vee has some serious confidence
Monroe on a solo 1 on 4 fast break
Monroe bitches about calls like a pro

he is def ready to make the leap!!!

We have great rebounding guards

on?

Good counting Doris
What'd she say?
Casually counting by 2's for Jones's scoring potential
That was so beautiful

Great backdoor

Such a great pass

Important Question

I’m sitting in my mom’s basement eating Hot Pockets: is this a step above or a step below sitting in my mom’s basement eating Double-Stuffed Oreos?

downgrade

Depending on flavor

Ham & Cheese?
still down

Now if you were enjoying some BBQ chicken, that would be a different matter.

Step Down

As it indicates your mother is not in the kitchen making you a scrumptious lunch like she should be.

Is saying one's mother should make one a meal chauvinistic?

Or just good parenting?

Story at 11.

Chauvinism=good parenting?

Practice for DSRL instead.

So sweet the Doc should check his blood levels
LUNCH TIME!

Fat kid on camera for 10 seconds

And a Soft Pretzel contest

Doris is winning apparently. This crew is really hungry. ESPN needs to step up and buy them a MAN’s meal.

um these NYC references while going to commercial are getting worse and worse
Ouch CBS.

“Bad pass turnover on Austin Freeman”

why?

Is benimon always open for 3?

I can’t figure it out!

Austin not looking too good right now
Looking bad?

Or just off?

Just off

Jason making up for it.

Hasn’t had too many opportunities. They’re playing him tough. Expect a big 2nd half.

Reynolds, Jones,.... Wright???
Greg riding the bench?

Think JTIII is just saving him given the score?

no need for further Monroe foul trouble
not a great first half for Austin

but damn the Hoyas have been hot on D

Jason

May kiss you on the mouth

wonder if Crawford would still start Vee over Clark
This is

what im talking about, beat their asses, sweet

Jones heating up
now it is a game

panic button .. . where are you????

Jones is warming up

Danger time until the half-time whistle

Yeah, must keep up up pressure and close out half, not looking good right now.

cometh the big games

cometh Jason Clark

JONES AWESOME
should have been POY

journos are idiots

Dominique Jones just came to play

Yall watching? uh oh…

Jones starting to mouth off too
Come on guys
at halftime

get in your nervous poops.

let him

talk he cant beat us by himself

nice response

greg should touch it every time down this half

Monroe scores with such ease
THERE YA GO, FREE
Freeman bam
this comments section

has great “efficiency of movement”

crash

the damn boards

Good first half

Going to get lunch and throw up

haha me too

shaking

31-19 half

thanks for that doomsday stat espn

NO LEAD IS SAFE.
as noted from our first game against USF
well

other then the slow few minutes, I like it, We need to win by 20. Shut Dj up

Coach Thompson

sweating . . . not a good sign

He's always sweating o_O
No, great sign

The man’s in the game. Epic halftime speech forthcoming.

Sideline Reporter

Sounds EXACTLY like Doris Burke

Gottlieb sucks

way to point out the cloud and skip the silver lining . . . i hate the efffing guy

i actually thought

he was pretty fair this time.

LEt them

talk, we just need to collect the wins

i just like being angry

at things that I have no control over . . . it does wonders for my blood pressure and gives me an excuse to drink whiskey at the office

Good first half...

I think Julian is sick.. I’m at the game and he ran over to the bench and yacked just before the start of play after the under 12 minute tv time out..

do these guys not wear jackets when they're outside? COME ON
the diarrhea bug

strikes again! I hope Mary Jane Cratty stocked some extra TP on the bus.

Gah

The plague is back

this blog is not going to react well if usf outscores gtown by 13 in the 2nd half
Fan friendly award

The Garden’s baseball style beer ushers are clutch. The $8.25 beer are not so casual.

Huge second half for Freeman and Vee will pickup 9 points in garbage time with a 20 point lead.

Throwing up during/after St Johns beats Marq will only cost me $200.

I want them

to leave no doubt, whip them like they stole something

they already stole any chance of being a 4 seed or higher
And they stole our dignity

when they beat us by some act of the devil the first time around. Time to go get it back

I have

been waiting for this since that lost, I thought I would have to wait until next season, but to beat them with Jones is way to good to pass up. We have to stay at it though, no let up.

How much time tilll 2nd half?

Anyone?

Looks like

about 30 seconds

Wow, we're getting slaughtered on the glass

Let’s hope that changes.

Really just the offensive glass

Only 2 down overall

Good start

NOT

Heath

clearly opened a can of get your sh’t together at halftime

Where is OUR CAN OF THAT STUFF?
Monroe in the Triple Threat position

not our best option

would anyone on here have a problem

WITH SIMS COMING IN TO CLOTHESLINE JONES?

DEFENSE JESUS

Why are we playing man defense?

Because that's all we know how to play
4 fouls on Julian

Wonderful

at least we have a deep bench

bring on SIms

Refs

feeling the need to get back involved . . .

great game for vaughn
Doris

Cheerleading for USF

Let them have her

we can’t afford to have any more unattractive cheerleaders

Like Free in the post

Wish we saw more of that.

Unclear why he never plays well in MSG though

TIME OUT NOW
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT PLAY??!?!??

All i see on the play-by-play is Slam Dunk, assisted by Dominique Jones

Seriously, zone defense please

playing thru it

Holis needs to get hot

big 3 for hollis
Offensive fouls might be my favorite things ever!
Big charge Austin

Winning players make winning plays.

Write that down

That's 3 on DJBitchFace

they’re screwed if he has to sit

South Florida

starting to believe . . .

RWN2 . . . reaching for the bottle of whiskey

Zone Defense

play it now!!! especially since we are going small . . .

is it Sims time . .?

dude must be tired from getting up dumb early

Patience

USF made the plays they needed to in order to stay relatively in the game. We’re hustling just fine on offense. We’ll make that adjustment.

Y'all came to watch Dominique Jones sit with foul trouble
Chris playing great
Refs

Hate our big men.

3 on Monroe

Terrible foul call

where are these fouls?

both on Vaughn were crap, how was that on greg?

Simms

will have to play

Are we in a time out?

stupid play by plays

Checking if Wright had a 2 or 3
Three

leave it on the board and let’s get on with it . . ! Refs, stop trying to feel important!!!

USF fans

I asked my friend at the game if there were any USF fans there. his response:

“They have a slut dance team, a band, and fans of other teams rooting against georgetown.”

Is Monroe in or Sims

Feed too small at work

Lets get on

a run

how is that not a foul?

come on.

everyone

in the Garden has it in for us . . . oh, for the halcyon days where MSG was Patrick’s house

Including Doris

WOw

MOnroe . . . paid attn at the footwork camp

Greg is the man

Give him the damn ball more

Greg has decided this is his game
Wrecking ball

taking on 3 players . . . not our best option

Great teamwork there
LEts go

run ole DJ off the floor

Look what happens when we play zone d against a team that can’t shoot.

Well

CW needs to get his ass under control

I think he's playing pretty awesome

He’s going to have a few erratic drives, but damn he’s playing good D and getting some easy transition buckets

South Florida

0-5 from beyond the arc

you have to be kidding me
OH SHIT
The 'ole

Roy Hibbert foul-20-feet-from-the-basket

SIMMS

will have to play

WTF!!!!

That is not a foul

Literally the worst call I've ever seen
That was some

BS

So....

…we can’t foul for the last 10 min

Time for Freeman
Shooters

And FT’s

jt3 needs to go off on refs

esherick-esqe after this game

Henry

looks scared
uh oh

Why is Vaughn

playing at the top of the key?

might be a good time for freeman to get hot
Gotta

find the heartbeat now

Who wants beef with Chris?

Not I

That

was a big, big shot

huge shot

momentum killer

CW looking to take over

Gonna be feast or famine.

4 on Jones
That wasn't a foul
My bad

Looked like it on my mini screen

or 5 on vaughn apparently
WE ARE FINE.

Documented. Going to get a soda.

Time for Sims

Can’t believe they just called that BS on Vaughn

Time for Sims to earn his scholarship
Bad things happen

when lordnick gets up for soda

WTF

Come on refs

I'd love to see a replay on that one.
simmmmmmmss

get some!

Well

Simms, was talking on his tweeter, what will he do

Come on Magestic

make it happen big man

With the block!
BOOOOOM!!!

Sims in on D.

Freeman knows what to do
Thats it

LETS ROLL ON THESE BITCHES

Positive of Foul Touble

Must play zone and USF NOT good against zone

I can't imagine we're actually fouling this much

Are the refs going nuts on us?

Yes
fouls

there were about 11 fouls called in the first half . . . let’s just say there have been many more in the second stanza

Calling ticky tack bullshit on us.

haha we won Doris back
30 minutes, 50 seconds

Has anyone ever fouled out of a Big East Tournament game in less time than that? I doubt it.

Aaron Gray in the 2007 final
Hahahahaha

Captain Flopsweat!

YEah

The refs are jobbing us, but there coach was bitching about it, so the refs are calling it. but our boys are getting mugged under the basket

Yall came to see DJ

get his ass whipped

shot off the side of the backboard

not a good omen

this game needs to end
JT3 needs to start yellling
USF still can't buy a FT or a 3

Sims rebound!

Majestic

looks confident at the stripe

WTF

who was the foul on, this is bullshit

Copy that post

and you can just keep pasting it
These refs suck balls

Excellent Goaltending!
payback for missed goal-tend
Yeah Magestic!

blockg shots inside the hooop

Did D-Burke call Austin "Victor" before the break?

Or did I misunderstand the comment.

JASONNNNNN
Long Three by Clark

Looks solid.

Yall

came to see DJ get his ass whipped

team has responded well to the foul calls
Agreed

Who would’ve thought we would still have this margin?

except Monroe

who does a full-on MJ “Who, ME???” every time

no i mean as a team

we expanded the lead

GOODBYE

SOUTH FLORIDA, thats what we came to see, ROTF

up 13 w 5

no lead is safe

^^ truth
never forget

the eshera. No lead ever safe. Always a creative way to blow it.

NAh

I think were good, dont think we will lets this one get away, not today

Worried w/ the foul trouble though. Have to play smart.

WOW

CW has 0 TOs right now

gotta be the latest in any game that has been true

many terrible chucks, tho
SICK
Julian?

Or a play?
Vaughn’s puke bucket for MVP. Or at least a handle for a casual poster.

ah, breaking out the old fake-contact-missing timeout
invented by monroe last year against uconn
Airballs

three today for USF . . . tremendous

and now, one for us
I can't believe there were "airball" cheers after the A-free miss.

down 16 points.

potato knishes

Worth the walk.

This game is still in question.

just looked at the box score

freeman 3-12, yikes

Nice move Greg

Glad he’s found his aggressiveness

8th and 9th foul shots

in a game where about 30 fouls have been called . . . seems a bit slanted, huh?

Can someone please explain

the John Saunders-Georgetown connection? Escapes me.

he is Candian

so I assumed that he is an SU fan

candian being shorthand for Canadian
Yeah, but they've made a few references to it

Just curious

GOODBYE

MR JONES, I love it

Walk ons!!!!!!!
Yall

Came to see DJ lose today, LOL

Y'all

came to see the Ryan Kardok show!?!?!?!

Bring on CUSE!
What will the SU line be for tomorrow's game?

I’m going to guess -5

Jerelle Benimon

Diving for loose balls up 19 with 2:24 remaining. ITS MARCH BABY.

Where

was the foul

Doris

Loving on Syracuse now. She hates us.

Disgusting.

Can’t wait for tomorrow.

Tomorrow

Same crew- they just declared it.

B Team calling GU-SU

seems like a waste of airtime

Probably better than Bilas’ crew- they’re all complete Cuse homers.

Then again, it’s still Doris.

Garbage time

always welcome in a hoya win

Bench...

CLEARED!

Hoyas Revenge Tour 2010

is rolling.

I believe USF benched their starters in disgust :D
next stop:

HORROR

Good minutes out of Sims today. Worked within his limits, kept him in zone defense. Nothing too great, but solid.

big shot of the USF walk-on

Club Trillion, player

SHOOT IT WHITEBOY
words of encouragement?
Needs to work on the ball skills first.
doughtery

really needs to cut down on his turnovers.

CW, worst voice ever

Tyson-like?

Debateable, but he shouldn't be allowed to shave until we win the championship.
Don't care

Freeman sounds like Tim Meadows in Ladies Man.

Just don’t care

tru dat . . . back to the saltmines now
Way to go

fellas, you made my day

pushing 500 comments

record?

Watched the game...

…with 4 new friends, all fellow hoya fans. Classes of 1991, 1992, 2009 and yours truly of 2007. Great stories were told of ’Zo trash talking all the time. Guinness was quaffed. Fries were dipped in curry sauce. Victory was enjoyed.

sounds nice

i was frantically switching tabs trying to get work done and cursing out the crappy channelsurfing feed. At least we were winning, or I would have pulled my hair out

Same

Minus the trying to get work done part

i gave up on channelsurfing and just went and blatantly watched tv at my job
Channelsurfing is tough

When you’re on a conference call with the president of your company. That was tough. There’s a reason I’m taking a half day tomorrow

question...and I know I'm and idiot

“Ya’ll came to watch DJ……” is that from his twitter or something? I think it’s funny as hell, just didn’t see where it originated…apologies in advance. And yes, I did come to watch DJ swat Gregory and stare him down while down 17 and 2 minutes to go.

jones yelled it to the student section after they beat us at home
thanks hire...knew he flexed and yelled something, wasn't sure what
what's the story with the win-loss tally on the left of the blog?

Win streak of 3? 22-9 record? Does this thing read the future and know for sure we will see off Cuse, or does it just suffer from the Looking Ahead Syndrome so typical of anything Hoya this year?
