Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 2148798, member: 780"] Washington Post article this morning said Ewing is interviewing for the job. I think this is now a done deal because they do not want any further embarrassment. It seems obvious that they fired JT III without a plan. And that they were operating under the assumption that there were plenty of other coaching candidates out there and that any of them would love to come to Georgetown. When they were turned down repeatedly, it must have been a shock. And I'm sure some candidates didn't make the list because Big John wouldn't hear of it. To replace JTIII with Patrick Ewing could not have been the plan all along. It's the best they could come up with and they couldn't keep working down their list of coaching candidates. Especially with Big John sitting there with veto power over their choice. Poor JT III. It's one thing to be replaced by Shaka Smart or Tom Crean. But to be replaced by Patrick Ewing? Ouuuch!!!
