Threat on Georgetown/Clemson:
Georgetown is the more talented team here imo, even with both sides having two key options unavailable. Lowe is the best player on the floor, Vince the best big.
But Brownell has done a really good job of late, and will have a good game plan here.

Quick thread on Butler/Pitt:
Baye Ndongo is the name to watch for Pitt. He’s a bad matchup for Butler, who needs Drayton Jones to stay out of foul trouble. Ndongo guards the perimeter well, and crashes the offensive glass super well. He won’t be flustered by a five out attack.

Georgetown isn’t in a position to underestimate opponents, and it seems they consistently do.
If you beat Clemson, this game will be largely forgotten, sure. Delaware St played well, sure.
But you cannot be down 10 in the second half to Delaware St. There needs to be a standard

I’m seeing a ton of pushback on DeRosa’s comments from last night. But he’s right. GU isn’t good enough to fuckin blow off a night vs anyone in the 300s. It’s proven the metric WILL punish you if you sleepwalk the night off.View quoted post on X
They’re 3-0, 82 in KenPom. 76 teams make the tournament 32 autobids.
If you don’t understand analytics, you don’t understand basketball, especially college. Ignoring that, while somehow getting the record wrong, is not my problem. This conversation is over.
God Bless 🙏
