    You do realize that Freeman, Thompson, and Clark are all 3pt shooters right?

    So you want to get speed guards, good 3pt shooters and 7footers. Word to UNC.

      Yeah... They're 3 point shooters....
      Certainly not on the same level as a Trajan Langdon or JJ Redick or Shane Battier or Jon Scheyer.
      Imagine players of that caliber playing at Georgetown. I think JTIII needs to change his offensive philosophy. Georgetown should just go to a half-court offense that pounds it inside. I don't think at this point it'd be possible to recruit those kind of guards but it would be possible to recruit the top big men with G'Town's recent track record of big men getting drafted in the NBA Draft.

        If they had the best shooters in the history of college basketball they still wouldn't win. Because JT3 is awful.

            Cool, players like Langdon, Redick, Battier, and Scheyer don't just grow on trees, they tend to be regarded as the best of the best, and Duke tends to be able to win recruiting battles for those players.

            If Georgetown (or pretty much any school for that matter) had access to players like those at their disposal of course they would take them.

            MLB- St. Louis Cardinals
            NBA- Boston Celtics
            NHL- Chicago Blackhawks

                    I'm surprised he was able to get G'Town to a Final Four. Bill Carmody runs a way better version of the princeton offense than JTIII.

                        Obviously this current class was as talent as Jeff Green, and Roy Hibbert crew.. To say JT3 is awful is just clueless. Can't be as succesful in the Big East like he is and be an awful coach.

                          He's had 2 great regular seasons at GT. One good tournament, one great tournament and 5 awful postseasons. Davidson, Ohio and VCU. With an NIT trip in there. Awful.

                            I don't think he's awful, but I also don't see Georgetown winning many national championships under him with the kind of players he brings in.

                              This day and age, I don't see GT winning many championships. Especially with the one and done rule. It's screwed college BB

                                As a Tigers fan, I understand we lost and wouldn't blame it on the refs but really looking at that block, I can't help but think it should've been called a foul. While it's a bang-bang play, you can clearly tell that Williams hit Witherspoons right arm before he got a piece of the ball.

                                Knowing that it was Jim Burr calling this game (same ref that botched end of Rutgers/St John's) makes me even more iffy. However, the worst call by far was granting the timeout instead of the jumpball, but alas.
