Ed Cooley to Georgetown

[MJKI]

Rothstein tweeting that English from George Mason as a prime candidate. I mean he’s fine and all but going from Cooley to English would be a failure of epic proportions in PeeCee land

their board wants chris mack.

Watson's dad is not going to be okay.

I’m just here to see his inevitable twitter meltdown…

Just saw @August_West 's post on Winged Foot. How is that drive daily? Viable? I guess so, especially if he has a driver.

About as bad as traffic can be.

 

[Fishy]

Leaving is one thing. Leaving but staying in the conference? That's not a good look, especially after he's filming the us, we, me, you videos or what they're called.

Also, this looks like it's been done for a month which seems to coincide with him checking out of the season....just an awful look.

 

[UCTitleTown]

How many current players and incoming recruits will he bring with him to Georgetown? Collateral damage for PC is coming.

30 minutes without traffic. Easy.

Cooley may bleed his hometown Providence, but apparently bled out at PC. New MLS listing suggests Cooley’s hightailing out of his East Greenwich home.

 

[District-Husky]

Sorry, Friar J. For your sake, I hope PC hires an outstanding young coach.

 

[HuskyHawk]

It's small consolation, but I honestly hope you hire a better coach for less money and kick the snot out of his teams. Maybe you can now think about his arrogant and spoiled comments in a new light.

 

[Sibeerian]

Good luck with the next coach and thanks for sharing your thoughts here. Where does the Georgetown rivalry fall now for Providence fans? At the top of the hate list?

Cooley is about to be the 3rd highest paid coach after Calamari and Self....Gtown can afford it and it's about time they loosened up their purse strings, but they coulda gotten someone better for that amount.

Fair take:

I always laugh when schools say "national search" as opposed to what? Whoever is in city limits that given day.

 

[UCfor3]

Even Watson's dad feels bamboozled. Lol This was handled as poorly as can be. It's not that he's leaving. It's the way he did it. Comes off as a real phoney.

as opposed to Syracuse.

The whole saga was funny to watch, but now it’s over I think I somehow
1) feel bad for Providence
2) dislike Cooley even more

 

[August_West]

Good luck. This was shocking to me. When the whispers first started at the end of the season, I thought there was no way it would happen. I’ve come around a bit to actually thinking that this sucks. He did you guys dirty. You’re not really dupes, you were played by a world class con artist. Every person on earth has a right to seek out what’s best for them, I don’t begrudge Ed or anyone else that, but man, the way he did it was so brutal and unnecessary. Boeheim level scumbaggery. Didn’t think Ed had that in him, but no one can argue that point now.

Big Fraud.

I have zero sympathy for Providence. What I am concerned about is that they go back to being a big east doormat. I get that a strong GT is better than a strong PC, but I’m hoping their next coach can at least keep them somewhat competitive in the BE.

 

[HooperScooper]

I'm just seeing this. Georgetown is going to pay him $6 million a year? Holy ----! That's insane. What exactly did he do at PC?

Hurley makes $3 million. Raise coming when the season is over!
