I can't believe Cooley's gonna like that coming from his own conference.

I think it can be defended as parody and look forward to more.

Is the account actually affiliated with the Big East? I assumed so, but upon closer inspection, it’s hard to tell.

Oh man, what a trailer.

I get timing the release right before the return game, but how do you make a documentary without showing the return part in it?

I couldn't help myself and dropped more money than I would like to admit to get into the Dunk Jan 27.

Witnessing first-hand an entire state's worth of vitriol for 2 hours will be worth it

I am thinking about getting tickets to that game, too. Are you going to wear UConn gear for the game?

Did you get it from Providence or a second hand site? I feel like I know the answer, but I thought I would ask.

The game is really about PC-Cooley so I will probably not wear any team gear. Not looking to troll on this occasion. I got my ticket from the secondary market. Prepare for sticker shock

Holy crap, did not expect 75 minutes. They have one of these for all 11 teams? Looking forward to watching

 

[BGesus4]

Against all odds at the end they make it to the sweet 16

 

[FriarJ]

You guys have to watch the whole thing. The real story is finally told. Holy heck. Cooley is going to blow a gasket.

That was absolutely brutal. For a minute I was amazed that the conference would allow that to be put out there, given that the dude's still in the conference. But I'm thinking it's actually just brilliant for the drama and publicity.

 

[87Xfer]

What is the story they tell, in a nutshell? Serious question. I know what I've heard, but I'm curious to hear what's in the documentary.

Every gritty thing you've heard, it's there and mostly unfiltered. Lots of Fanta. Watch it. I'm basically afraid to watch the rest of these.

Lol. "This dude is like a scum bag. He is a scum bag, he is a scum bag. I've called him Hitler and I don't think it's inappropriate. He's basketball Hitler."

It tells the story of his rise, betrayal, and eventual residing in Georgetown. It is told through a 53 year season ticket holder, a PC faculty member, a Scout message board poster and big PC fan who lives in Providence, a current PC student, the Casual Hoya guy and another Georgetown fan, as well as John Fanta. It also shows Ed Cooley’s own damaging words time and time again. It’s absolutely brutal.

Finally there is a great clip of a Kemba game winner in the BET.

Yea Cooley looked terrible in that doc. In the end idk if he’ll think it was worth it

I know what I’ll be watching Saturday afternoon…

All he had to do was say I’m having some family problems, step away for a year get his life together and come back somewhere. The route he chose and the lies and the destruction of a team shows the scumbag he is. Many players on the squad last year won’t speak to him including Ed Croswell. This documentary is the just desserts we have been waiting on, before Saturday. Finally someone with the courage to show it for what it was.

I watched it for Taylor Swift and all the pink hats.

He could've left for Georgetown, he would've looked like a major bulls^^t artist but it wouldn't have been all that awful if he handled it the right way. The guy is a scumbag and tanked a team that could've done damage in the tournament and then intentionally twisted the knife several times. He handled it the worst way possible and was vindictive in doing so.

He's a selfish scummer and he was holding PC hostage every year to up his salary. It was all about him but his arrogance made Providence level up and take the program more seriously than they previously had. In the end it worked out for you, Kim English will be good and you have a great practice facility and NIL. Plus you all get to cr@p all over Cooley once a year.

Well, you weren’t upset then. The pink game was against Nova, I was there as my father was ailing and I was in town to help. I got a 3/4 zip pink friar pullover. It’s a beaut.

I ended up deleting this post because I started to watch the video, but thanks for the reply. Truth be told I started with only about a third of it to go, but it is freaking incredible. As a Friar fan, it has to be somewhat vindicating to see this all laid out on film.

You are right, Cooley has got to be ballistic over this. Is it possible that they did this without his permission? I mean they must have, because there's no way he greenlight this. He looks like a complete horses ass in it. Of course, that's because he was a complete horses ass.

 

[CL82]

For what it's worth the guy that I quoted, Matt LeBeau, is freaking awesome in the video.

Here is a post from his Twitter account:

Best part starts with our good guys appropriately destroying PC about 32:00, then their fans’ gloves come off. Old guy’s the best to me, especially his facial expressions, eyes, and words. Cooley will be destroyed in Providence.

I sent him a message asking for his Venmo. I want to buy him drinks on Saturday.

He and his son both post on are board. I agree his eyes, he was genuinely hurting about the whole thing.
