There has been no HoyaTalk discussion of Hart's academics because it has not been publicized beyond a chosen few connected with the athletic department.  That being said, I am sure that had GU really wanted Hart, the academics would have been resolved.  The fact that the Hoyas recruited Tre Campbell instead of Josh Hart speaks volumes as to the evaluation of talent by JT3's assistant coaches (many of whom have since been replaced).

I'm not going to defend JT2's regime as to academics, or recruiting (or lack of same) during the last few years of his tenure.  He got very lazy.  Allen Iverson fell into his lap.  In reality, Georgetown has not been "Big Man U" for many years, well before JT3's arrival.

GU still recruits in Baltimore; many players have come from the I-95 corridor bedroom communities (Columbia, Hyattsville etc.).  The most recent Hoya from Baltimore proper was former 76er/now Net (that's a great NBA resume!) Henry Sims (2013 grad), from Baltimore and Mt. St. Joseph High School.

All the props to Jay Wright.  Great coach and real good guy.  Hard not to like him.
