OT: Providence

[REB1094]

Epps is shooting Georgetown out of the game

 

[Edward Sargent]

Geez CFJ is really bad

 

[HooperScooper]

Two things. 6 million a year. He kept Providence relevant for a long time. Very unusual for a coach to go to a conference rival. I don’t hate him for that.

Because you're not a PC fan.

Epps is shooting Georgetown out of the game

Georgetown just is not a very good team. He may have left for the bigger brand but he has some work to do. If he turns this program around it will really be interesting to read the comments and what happens when he makes future returns. If Georgetown was winning this game it would be a different crowd.

Same player. Perfect example of our only weakness if Donovan does not play. He is a strong man. No way possible Samson can cover him in the low post. If Samson could learn how to use his athleticism when he is guarding a player like Cook who uses his body then he could take the next step. He would be a non factor if we had some beef up front. Orduro is a man at 6’9” 240. He is big but more athletic than Cook. Real bad matchup for Cook.

Just like that he's having a big second half.

Now it’s loud

 

[HooperScooper]

I expected cans being hurled at Cooley, stoppages in play, and multiple fans being removed from the arena. This is lame.

 

[AntG168]

Supreme Cook is really good

 

[AntG168]

Geez CFJ is really bad

Does nothing well

 

[UConnSwag11]

Massive home cooking

 

[UConnSwag11]

Lol Epps fouled on that 3. No call

 

[Hunt for 7]

Just like that he's having a big second half.

Yeah he picked up his third foul early and though he was “cooked” but they have started to double Orduro down low which has helped from getting number 4. Cooley might have some issues but he can coach.

 

[auggie22]

He just becomes more unlikeable every time he opens his mouth.

Another take: I love how he seems to embrace the WWE villain role. Respect that.

 

[REB1094]

Announcers trying to defend the weaker-than-expected crowd by saying the refs might have talked to the student section and asked them to be respectful? Lmao

 

[slepers]

these providence fans should be thrilled, they will be getting another home game after the big east tournament.

Cincinnati going there?

 

[REB1094]

PC student section belting Taylor Swift (they actually do it!!) as Providence turns the ball over and GTown hits a 3 to make it a 2 point game

 

[superjohn]

@FriarJ spotted singing along to Taylor.

 

[HooperScooper]

I'm watching the game and they just played a Taylor Swift song. Is that the one? My wife says, "Why are grown men dancing and singing to a Taylor Swift song?" I'm still laughing.

Taylor Swift tradition at PC comes to an end after Georgetown hits a 3

Am I the only one rooting for Georgetown?

 

[HooperScooper]

@FriarJ spotted singing along to Taylor.

She's Tay Tay to @FriarJ

 

[Deepster]

And while they’re singing Taylor Swift, Georgetown hits a three to make it a two pt game.

Soooo PC right now.

Absolutely. Followed by us drumming them out of Gampel this week.

No, you're not!

 

[drayenob]

Tied at 58. I doubt they do it but is would be hilarious if Georgetown won.

Yeah, I was wrong in thinking PC's fans were overreacting to a coach leaving.

Once again:

What was so unique and over the line in this case (when compared to the many times coaches have moved on) that justifies this?
