I’ll ask you next. Care to wager on whether he leaves?

Finally, if does leave for a fellow conference member, and I hope he doesn’t there are two things I would like to state.

UConn and it’s coach drop to #2 most hated by PC fans.

You might be surprised who ends up being his replacement.

I don't think this is a cool move by Georgetown. We're all competitors in the league, but there should be some unwritten rules. If Providence was underpaying Cooley, or if they were starting to get a wandering eye themselves, maybe it could be okay. Then again, our old friends Pitt, Syracuse and BC didn't mind putting a knife in our back.

I don't know Cooley (obviously), but this doesn't seem like a move he'd make. He's a Providence (town, not school) guy. This could switch him from hometown hero to a hated traitor. I wouldn't be surprised if he left Providence, but I think it will be to a different conference. He should've taken the Michigan job.

They pulled the exact same crap with Mack at Xavier. They think they are on a different level with this stuff. No other school has hired another BE coach in 45 years and I don’t know of any that may have tried.

Cooley should’ve shut down the rumors whether he’s going or not. There’s no benefit to anybody having the speculation flying around this week.

If you end up going to Gtown, it’s an easy explanation as to why you said what you did - to not with your players’ tournament opportunity.

Rumor has it that this is about NIL and he has addressed it with the team. If that is true then players won’t be upset.

Sure we can have our opinions about Georgetown and how this makes them look poaching a coach from a fellow conference member that is based on catholic school ties. However, if there is judgement on lousy behavior or look, more of it should be directed at Cooley. Why? One based on what you wrote in your first paragraph, but second, and much more simple, Cooley could've shut the rumors down easily and he hasn't. This leads me to believe he at the very least is entertaining the GTown job for sure.

At the least he will meet with Georgetown to see what they offer. They may throw $6Mil around if they have to.

FriarJ you thinking the rumors have affected the PC play of late? Team hasn't looked the same over the last 5 or 6

Well, I know of one other distraction that wasn’t this, it’s possible this caused that other distraction though, so who knows. Friday will be telling. Another bad game and it will be too obvious to ignore.

Billy Donovan’s not leaving the Bulls, so I’ll go with Mike Rice whistleblower and Big East single-game points record holder Eric Murdock.

I would be incredibly pissed if I was a Providence fan. Big time dick move if Cooley goes to Georgetown.

Oh, he will go from most loved person to most hated overnight. That’s one of the reasons this makes no sense. But it’s crossed my mind that letting this go on is a bit of payback to fans that booed his team during and after the SHU game on Senior Day.
 
Until it happens I will refrain from dogging him, but if it does his reputation as Mr. Nice Guy media darling will take a hit. His whole brand is the loyal Providence guy.
