Syracuse/Georgetown

A caveat. I am glad Pitt is in the ACC, it made the move, the only move it could make. It was a no brainer. No brainer.

But man, I miss Big East basketball. Miss it badly. It just seemed so much more "BIG" than the ACC and that is weird considering the ACC seems like the granddaddy of all the BB leagues.

When is it on? Or did I miss it?

Does Georgetown ever recruit white players?
The school is only 20% black students.

It's over. Georgetown win

 

[Piranha]

I miss playing G'Town, Nova, UConn, and Bill Raftery. If we could play 1 or 2 of them non-conference and get Bill as a commentator, then things would be kosher.

Who cares?

Who cares?

If there's anything white people need to worry about, it's being discriminated out of exorbitantly expensive private schools.

Honestly, Georgetown is located in and around so many predominantly black areas that I'm far more shocked by the lack of black students than I am the abundance of black basketball players. If you recruit DC, southern VA, and Baltimore it's going to happen.

Completely agree.

Anyone that knows John Thompson knows there is no bigger racist on the planet. Not sure is son was the bigot his dad was. Gtown has gotten better but still pretty ridiculous. Speaking of, seeing two white players on the court at the same time on Friday was quite a shock for a Jamie Dixon team. Rare to see this

Me too-best BB league of all time- every game was a war- games against Uconn, the cuse, nova, Louisville, wvu, G'towne were all treats.

Levon Kendall and Aaron Gray, for two seasons.

But again.... .who cares? I don't care if theyre all white, all black, or a mix. Who gives a damn?

Duke's entire starting lineup last year was black... this year three starters are white. You think Coach K cares what the makeup is? He won a title last year.

Well, there is a certain "class" of people for whom things like that are really important.

Are you saying that Dixon is a racist because he has few white players?

Does JD??

 

[NTOP]

Does JD??

Mav Rowan??? TJ?? Mason?? Yuri?? I hope we get the Carmody kid.
How do we categorize Raffy Maia?? Or should we just enjoy the kid's hustle & smarts??

 

[Ski11585]

Oh good. It's been a long time since we've had one of these moronic discussions. Where is @UP#1 - He's been popping in to make stupid posts about Mason. This is right up his alley.
