sold out record crowd
last Big East matchup at the Dome
Derrick Coleman and other greats in the house
Melo in the house getting his jersey retired
(better had invited Bryant - #3 ranked recruit 2015, Isaiah Whitehead and others to soak in the atmosphere and lock em in before that poacher and thief Calipari moves in)

except for Warrick and probably Edelin, though it would be cool if Edelin would show up.

Lots of extra hype around the game, I just hope the team is focused. Cuse always seems to win these games where they break the attendance record.

Curious to see how jt3 attacks the zone. I wonder if he puts dsr at the foul line.

It's only funny till someone gets mad. Then it's hilarious.

But when you get your ass kicked for 25 years by a program, I guess frustration spills over and leads to whiny rants like that.

That shit is funny.

I'll be watching in my bathrobe.

It's only funny till someone gets mad. Then it's hilarious.

From this garbage to jumping through hoops so Cuse fans can't buy tickets to the game in DC(should be grateful for the one sellout Cuse fans are helping you with), to those students who made it a big sob story about getting garbage thrown at them at the Dome a few years ago(they were asking for it), etc.

Now the focus is apparantly on off the court shit, which is priceless because GTown players have had their issues over the years like anyone else.

I guess this is what happens when most of your positive memories on the court in this rivalry happened in the early 80's, meaning you gotta be like 45 to remember when GTown had the upper hand.

MCW can pay for lots of bathrobes when he's a lottery pick. Meanwhile GTown hasn't had a guard drafted since 2Pac was alive.

yawn. you're still talking about that? (and saying we're on petty shit when you're bringing up shit about tickets from previous years). nevermind it's common practice to do that with tickets (give donors preference). and this is a blog laughing at the compliance office having to send that letter over a t-shirt that hadn't even been sold yet. that shit is FUNNY. syracuse compliance came down with the hammer over a t-shirt mentioning MCW, but nothing re: him copping to stealing a bathrobe and gloves. FUNNY.

no, see, it's not like anyone else. Southerland got caught plagiarizing and he's back on the court. Whittington skipped an exam and he's not back (see the difference?). The t-shirt was a list of 'cuse problems and it's something like 37 over 20 years vs. 4 for g'town. LMAO.

2-2 over the last four. and one of those losses was that bullshit when they didn't let hollis back on the court. but you can keep talking about 25 years to obscure the more recent parity. that's cool.

>MCW can pay for lots of bathrobes when he's a lottery pick.

you'd think he'd be smart enough to know that and wait a year. Nope. cuse players are that dumb.

at least our recent NBA players aren't complete busts. Flynn's playing in fucking Australia and you're talking about syracuse guards. lol. which nba guard are you proud of since 2Pac was alive? Not Flynn. Not Johnson. Not Joseph. You're proud of Waiters? I see Basa ready to draft over him. I see .400 fg%. I see near 1:1 A:T. lol. I see all stah as your one co-signer on that one. LOL.

A couple years ago? it's EVERY year. GTown fans don't support their own team, and for several years in a row, the crowd was at LEAST half orange. So now they've been trying all that shit to keep SU fans out. They don't do that for any other game, and they are STILL doing it, so it's not several years old.

And you really don't see why SU would protect it's own student athlete in that MCW situation? There's no way you're that clueless.

See, I can't figure out if GTown fans are serious when they say things like this. It's amazing. First of all, many of those 37(or whatever) are completely exaggerated or flat out not true. And FOUR? LMAO. FOH. We'll start with Charles Smith killing somebody. Is that one of the 4? Like, you can't possibly believe those numbers you just posted can you?

So last 4...... that's your angle now? A few years ago you tried some "since JTIII took over" angle, and then posted WRONG numbers for that time period, even. LOL. Just know that Syracuse passed Georgetown by in the Derrick Coleman era, and has been the better program by every measure since. There's really nothing to fight there. It's just the way it is. And Syracuse has won 17 of the last 21 at the Carrier Dome, in the series.

MCW would be the third Cuse guard to be a lottery pick in 5 years, if he goes that high(he's projected to). You're in here naming Johnson and Joseph, who never played 1 minute of guard at Syracuse. FOH.

Who the fuck is basa and who cares who he wants one of his 16 favorite teams to draft? I know a few of y'all hang on his every word for some reason. Waiters is a 20 year old rookie.....why don't you bobby boxscore his numbers since January 1. He, like many young rookies, is steadily improving and is playing pretty well the last few months.

Now onto Georgetown. I know they don't get elite talent anymore, so it's not surprising they haven't had any highly drafted guards since Iverson. But you'd think they'd have at least produced a Jason Hart type....2nd round pick who carves out a role and hangs around the league for 10 years.

no,. georgetown alumni just don't congregate in DC. georgetown is a small school playing in an nba arena far from campus with poor transportation to/from georgetown. DC is not a city with a large home grown population and it has many athletic teams, what else is there to do in southern canada?

giving donors early access to seats isn't surprising. Doing so for big games where a lot of non-regulars go and there's high demand for the tickets is particularly not surprising. congrats on a lot of cuse fans trying desperately to get the fuck out of upstate new york and ending up in the dc area.

and you're still crying over $25 dollars extra for four tickets. cry about it.

i like how you're just so very, very focused on guards because you know the F/C is a big L for you. huuuuuuuuge L. lol. Big Man U.

and porter's going lotto and will be better than MCW because he's smart and not a thief.

Translation.....nobody cares about Georgetown basketball, and Syracuse has one of the largest and most passionate fanbases in the country, and despite GTown trying to keep them out, there will still be a sizable amount of SU fans at that game. Cry about it?

Kris Joseph was a high pick now? I mean, high compared to Hollis Thompson(who you said would be drafted), but he really wasn't a high pick or a bust or someone that anyone thought would be much of an NBA player. He had a good college career and did a good job to work himself into an NBA draft pick.

See, can't even credit your own players without being petty. If he ends up better than MCW, it's because he's better. Period. We'll see.

MCW has a lot to improve on(outside shooting, finishing at the basket, getting stronger, maturing with decision making) but with his height and court vision there is a lot of potential.

I mean, it's reality. Syracuse has record setting crowds every few years at home, and has a huge presence at every game they play along the east coast...MSG, NJ, DC, Florida, even at NC State last year. Georgetown doesn't really draw that well even at home. You can list the reasons why, but it doesn't change it.

So now it's gone from 4 to less than half of 37? Truth is, I really don't care either way. I'm just saying, don't make up numbers and apply consistency(if you're going to list rumors for SU, do the same for GTown), if you care enough to really go into all that stuff. I care about basketball.

45% for a guard is decent. And he's shooting 52% from the floor in Feb. His %'s in his first 4 months....37%, 34%, 42%, 52%. Can't ignore improvement like that.

been in the top 25 in terms of attendance in all of CBB 2 times in the last five years. georgetown draws pretty well, especially considering the size of the school and its location vs. the arena.

i want more than the go to 4 (Page, Smith, AI, and Graham--surprised people haven't been harping on Freeman's DUI more). i'm tired of that being the comparison to 37 (37!!!).

he hit a hot streak in a couple games (only played 8 in february, one was 6-6) and you're excited. he's also shooting less because, well, he's not a good shooter and he does nothing else but score.

Syracuse is also a small school, and like you said, most of the alumni relocate elsewhere. There's little convenient parking as the Dome is in the middle of campus on a hill, and often requires walking quite a few blocks uphill in the ridiculous Upstate NY winter weather. There'd be every excuse to not go to games, if the fanbase wasn't so passionate.

I really don't care, but didn't Riley(?) get arrested for beating up his own teammate a few years back? Zo used to hang out with the biggest drug dealer in DC, so there's that. And again, I don't give a shit either. Just saying.

Improving. Should have a good pro career. Try to deflect, twist, etc. all you want, but that's what it is.

there's nothing else in the syracuse region to compete for entertainment dollars like there is in DC. it's entirely different.

that was Page, i think. as for Zo, consider the different stories. JT Jr. supposedly confronted said dealer. What's Boeheim done that's remotely comparable?

he'll be nothing special in the league. meanwhile, where are those great Cuse Fs or Cs? excluding Melo, where's a single good nba player?

Nah, it was Riley. Though GTown didn't have too many fans in 2004, so maybe you weren't following then. Nobody else really was either.

You mean, excluding the guy who is better than every Georgetown player in the league? Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

Boeheim's players shine under him. He knows how to get the most out of them, and put them in the best positions to succeed, and sometimes guys look better than they are as they play to their strengths and their weaknesses are hidden(like Wes being BE player of the year despite having no handles). Meanwhile JT3 got his best talents throwing bounce passes to scrubby backdoor cutters in his "look at me, I'm so smart" system. Maybe that's why they can't recruit any top guards....they aren't allowed to do shit but bring the ball up and spot up for 3's in that boring ass system.

how'd i forget that? lol.

i mean, boeheim doesn't really get credit for the superstar who guested there being a beast, does he? just like i don't give calipari credit for AD. one and dones who were one and dones before they get on campus just don't really count to me as proof of a school being good at developing players.

but fine. you have Carmelo and why isn't there a trend of Fs after him?

ironic you post alladat right after DSR put up 33 points. i will say jt3 does like to recruit non-nba style guards. i'm hoping that changes, but at the same time, the Fs and Cs have been more than good enough to cover that. Ideally, this all changes--he's certainly been recruiting a bunch of '14 guards. and I really like Starks, even if he isn't an NBA player at all, he's good for the team. criminally slept on.

Cool, then Iverson doesn't count either then because he could've been NBA right away talent wise. Since you want to play that way, the last GTown NBA guard is who? Sleepy Floyd?

By the way, Carmelo STILL helping. Putting up millions to build the Carmelo Anthony Center practice facility which is greatly helping recruiting. Our biggest star gives back to the program to make it stronger, yours blows his money on weed and wings and don't give a damn about the program.

MUAH!

Awesome! your guy wastes his money building expensive playthings for athletics on campus and stars in stop snitching videos, ours gives money for education and opportunity and doesn't put his name on it http://thehoopdoctors.com/online2/2009/07/allen-iverson-gets-emotional-at-charity-game-press-conference/.

and he still talks with JT Jr. and actually put money away for his post basketball life. i hope he gets right, cuz he's had his share of problems.

He still could've played in the NBA right out of HS, which seemed to be your point(bad one, too) about Melo.

If AI graduated HS(GED, maybe?) in 2003 instead of 1993, he likely wouldn't have played any years of college. It speaks volumes that GTown hasn't been able to recruit anyone good enough to go that early in the one and done age.

also, the practice facilities are pathetic. one and dones aren't going to a tough academic school with bad facilities. so we don't recruit that type of player. or when we do, we don't beat UK for them. no shit.

Monroe was there 2, wasn't he?

Kind've funny that you're trying to not give Boeheim credit for Anthony, but Anthony is still helping the program 10 years later.

If only GTown had a star NBA player who was that rich and who cared enough about the program to kick in the first few million to get those facilities upgraded.

because that's the type of kid that goes to georgetown.

hmmm: http://www.guhoyas.com/genrel/022013aaa.html (and it's not just basketball only--other people on campus will actually benefit from it)

looks like that facility is getting built. and players hopefully aren't chipping in because honestly, fuck that--give your money to a real charity.

Melo does that too.

i find the idea that donating a fucking gym for a multi-million dollar athletic program is "charity" to be fucking dumb and very fucked up.

i also hope green and hibbert put in their share, and monroe once he gets his next contract. i have no doubt they will.

Syracuse-Georgetown tied in first in the Big East, and playing twice in the final 5 games of the season? It's happened like this so many times, so it's fitting that it's happening again in the last year of the Big East.

A lot of the other big rivalries are based largely on geographical reasons, this one has been just been basketball based which makes it unique. Whether they schedule each other in the future or not, it really won't matter because it won't be the same. This is basically it, for one of the best college bball rivalries.

gameday? end of the season? end of the rivalry? sheeeeeeeeeit. that'll be ill.

jt3's saying the series will continue. i'm curious to see how much hate survives. there's so much good hate, maybe it can still matter.

Is it a Gameday game? I thought it was a CBS game like today.

It's hard to see it mattering as much, even if it continues. I can't think of any really good non-league rivalries that aren't in-state rivalries. Maybe though.

12 pm game.

indiana/UK is the best and that has definitely faded in energy/hatred.

It was a dunk fest. G'town had Zo, Mutombo, Tillman, and one of my favorite players Robert Churchwell.

'Cuse had Coleman, Billy Owens, Sherman Douglas.

Game was crazy. I still remember Zo coming baseline and dunking so hard on Coleman they had to stop the game to reset the basket. Score was in the hundreds and the crowd was electric.

G'town ended up losing but the whole vibe was crazy.

As a kid I remember a comeback win the last game in '89, led by Syracuse pressing and getting the tempo up, finished off by a Sherman Douglas reverse dunk. Douglas never dunked, so that was crazy to see. I've never quite experienced another crowd just losing it's shit like that, to that level.

Like most matchups in recent years, GTown has to be able to slow the tempo and execute efficiently. If they don't, they don't have much of a chance.

If they do slow it down and execute offensively, it will be a very tough game. Syracuse has basically no low post scoring, and really isn't a good outside shooting team either on average so they can struggle in a half court game. Southerland is really their only good outside shooter. Triche is mediocre, but can get hot. Nobody else is really a threat. Fair will do damage with his mid range game, and it may then come down to how well GTown can check MCW.

Should be a great game.

Georgetown vs. Syracuse in 1994. I'm a Cuse fan, he's a G'Town fan (he even wanted me to go to school there)
Favorite player was Lawrence Moten...missed a potential game-winner. Arguing, clowning leading to some serious words a son should never say to his dad. I dodged a bullet that night.

Fuck Georgetown though (except Ewing)

and fuck this shitty game. GIVE US THE RIVALRY GAME CBS.

I was hoping we'd have him around for 3 years but with this year's weak ass draft he's gone. He'll be a top 5 pick.

Temple, Nova, Pitt, UConn and G'Town. all teams I LOATHE.

today is definitely a kick a puppy day.

He's been up and down for 4 years....and was just awful today. Made Cuse pretty easy to defend.

Georgetown came out looking like garbage, but Cuse was taking stupid shots and blew a chance to build a big early lead.

Awful game to watch.

BUT ya ain't

fewest points ever by 'cuse in the dome. ended a 38 game home win streak.

good shit. otto porter is the fucking man.
