No....translation...."ESPN doesn't want us anymore to be shown on a national level because of 4 disappointing years."

Could this sound familiar to us after 2 more of these bad seasons???

Don't be a wet rag. This is our opportunity to laugh at Georgetown, don't ruin it.

Nah, this was Georgetown's call. There is zero universes where ESPN would prefer Depaul over Gtown. It's ratings hit for them, not matter how Gtown is doing. You can sell history. You can't sell nothing (Depaul).

I do think Nike would prefer Georgetown other things equal, but if Depaul is a Nike school and Georgetown isn't (and it seems they aren't as they've refused to renew), then Nike may want to be giving the benefit of its PK80 sponsorship dollars to Nike schools. Nike may well have demanded that Georgetown sign or exit the tourney.

Depaul may just have been the lucky bystander who was available at last call.

That's true, good point.
