Or as it should be titled, "How Football Killed the Big East" It's pretty good so far, who else is watching?

The whole conference realignment fiasco of the early 10's will be looked back on in the future as a massive, 30-for-30 worthy clusterfrick.

Well apparently people were bringing Ewing effigies in the 80's sooo . . . Didn't know he had to go thru that

But then we get footage of Ewing choking someone. Seems like Georgetown should have their own 30 for 30 by now

It's funny because the university itself is the most white bread, fratty, lacrosse and crew loving place on Earth.

Thought that was Duke

Also, I think Georgetown would have fired Thompson Jr. by now if it wasn't for his dad. He'll never be the coach his dad was unfortunately

Haven't watched PTI in years. Had no idea Wilbon was such a racist idiot.

I was a kid in those days, I knew they were a dominant basketball conference, but I didn't know they were always fighting on the court. Maybe it wasn't Pat Riley that brought "basketbrawl" to the Knicks, it was Pat Ewing.

Before this year G Town had been to the tourney the last four years. He's a solid coach

Also, John Thompson with the sweater = Troll God

JT III is a solid coach. Aside from one Final Four appearance though, they have underachieved in the tourney.

I don't think Georgetown is a high profile gig anymore, especially with the recent demise of the Big East...JT III is a good fit for the Hoyas.

Yeah unless you're Kansas or Kentucky you can't really fire people for a few quick exits in the tourney. They won the regular season title last year and he's had some very solid teams.
