Ed Cooley post Seton Hall game exchange with Seton fan

I am coming around to the idea that Ed Cooley may be one of the most overrated coaches of this era. Announcers can’t say his name without singing his praises, but what has he actually accomplished? A few NCAA appearances where PC gets knocked out in the first round?

Maybe you’re right but on the other hand he brought Providence to the NCAA tournament. Providence.
 
I don't like Cooley much, but I do like how much he managed to piss off the PC fan base.

And also how much real estate they now occupy in his head. It is totally one of these situations....

Back and forth trash talk I love it it’s better then wanting to kick a fan out of the game.

Sounds like something I’d say TBH. About the wins that is…

I was standing and clapping until we scored to start the second half of the @ Nova game a few weeks ago and a fan behind me told me to “sit down, this isn’t Storrs”. My maturity level drops a few notches while rabidly rooting on the boys after a few cocktails.

I've had a few awkward moments doing the same thing. I just turned around and smile, shrug and say "Can't do it, sorry."
 
Let's face it.

Ed Cooley isn't a title caliber NCAA coach. He's a charlatan. He sells the allure of "drink my snake oil and I'll make everything wonderful" and he skips town before you realize it was just some snake oil.

I'll eat my left shoe if he ever wins a title.

There's like 5 title winning coaches in college basketball at any given time. Cooley isn't getting paid to win titles , at least not yet, he's getting paid to make a garbage program good again.

Cooley has won a total of 3 NCAA Tournament games in 17 seasons as a head coach. His teams won't be awful like a Ewing led team, but his ceiling isn't very high either.

Good for Cooley! Screw the fan! Worry about your own team!

Cooley has fully earned anything that comes his way, good or bad, especially this year. I'm on record for wishing him to have a crummy year. So far, he's had a satisfying season from my perspective. He sounds more and more like a jerk every time he speaks up

If how he presents himself causes discomfort to Georgetown's administration, alumni, or fans, It's part of the package. Same thing if PC or any other conference partisans want to test his mettle. His agent fielded and he pursued the high stakes opportunity in a high profile sport that has a winner and a loser in every game.

If he succeeds, he succeeds. It's not going to unduly upset me, and I don't think anything I say or do until the picture gets clearer, will be worth him or anybody else to say, "See, I told you," if he does well.

How is any of this out of the equation?

It's crazy to even think, but JC may be remembered more for this quote than any of the 3 titles. Reminds me of MJ and the crying meme.

hey man, he wanted to retire one day!

What most people don't remember was what a colossal balloon knot the reporter was being. the rest of the people in the room were teling him to shut up.

No, it's quite the contrary. This quote lives on for that exact reason. Barstool sports and other outlets promote with context.

Bringing a sign to the Georgetown game that says "$6M per win" and making darn sure he sees it

Did you bring the sign? I saw someone with that sign on the sidewalk outside the arena after the game and gave them a thumbs up.

Yes and this in the well spread of all media on black history month. Stubbed his toe big time with this one for the GT administration to swallow.
