Want to get really mad? Look at Georgetown's development

[EnviroSciGuy]

Since they beat us at home in December, they offer a good contrast to the trajectory of our seasons since that point, and how the development of the two squads is moving in opposite directions. They have continued to improve and have been competitive in their Big East matchups, even winning a few that I wouldn't have expected. While we bemoan the situation Red was left with, Cooley inherited a dormant program with no culture, little talent, and few advantages.

Ed Cooley is a good coach and program-builder; everyone knew he had would pick Georgetown up off the mat eventually. To see how parallel and opposite their results are since beating Cuse really shows badly things have gone off the rails here. The differences in pretty much every aspect of these two squads and the way they handle business are stark. It's hard to imagine Cuse even being competitive with an NIT or NCAA bubble-level squad, let alone beating them. The decent games against the Texas teams seems like a lifetime ago.

There's a ton of season left and a lot could happen, but at this point in time... yikes. Depaul may be playing better ball than us!

My issue isn’t that we suck, is that we are getting worse.

I've always liked Ed Cooley and thought highly of him as a coach. Never thought he'd leave Providence, but rumor was it had to do with something non basketball related.

It doesn’t make me mad. In fact, quite the opposite. It gives me hope that once this train wreck has passed, whenever that is, that we can hopefully turn things around. My biggest fear is that we slide into permanent irrelevance. With active management from the A.D., that will not happen. But again, JW needs to take control of the situation ASAP.
