That loss to them is not looking as bad. Still should not have lost that badly to them but they appear to be solid after giving Marquette a battle in Milwaukee.

Cooley, elite coach. Georgetown will no long be a bottle dweller, and that’s awesome for conference. Outside of UCONN they are likely are biggest brand name, followed by Nova and St Johns

IMO Cooley is more of an elite recruiter and worker of refs than a strategy guy, but it’s all part of the job.

What news are you looking for? Tuesday was their first practice, which was focused on themselves. Fedor spent all his reps with the blue team (starters+key reserves).

They had availability early in the week because their practices on Thursday and Friday are going to be early in the morning before they leave, so too early in the week to ask about any progress they might have made.

Here's Mac's presser if you didn't see it; Kalk and Jamiya spoke as well and those are also on our page.

Jacob, thank you. I was most curious about Fedor but any other news is also welcome.

It sounds like Mac might give Fedor a bit more rope against Butler.

I look forward to watching the game at 6am in NZ on Sunday

I hate to beat a dead horse, but Mac confirmed today at lunch that Mason is shooting it as well in practice this year as he has in prior years. He said Mason is just on a really bad streak (duh), and Mac expects that to turn around soon. Fred also gave us some insight about how he uses his NIL money. He sets aside 75% of his NIL $ and is using it to build his family a house so they can move out of their rental.

Mason is our Rick Ankiel, except we can’t move him to the outfield.

OMG, I have no information that I am privy to, but I have to call bullshit on Mac’s statement. His shot during game action looks HORRIBLE, his mechanics are way off. The shots are not even close to going in. Miller does not look like a player that should be on the court much in a league like the Big East. Loyalty factor of Mac, although it is quaint, has gone too far in this situation.
