Likewise my friend.

The great thing about message boards is it allows us all to speak candidly. As you know, I experienced the Drexler regime. Ewing may be a great coach... but the hire wasn't the slam dunk that you'd expect a Georgetown to make. Is he going to outcoach anyone? Maybe he will... Maybe not... There are a lot of guys Georgetown could have hired that I'd say beyond any shadow of a doubt would outcoach their opponent on any given day.

I liked both Mullin and Ewing as players. I feared them as competitors. They both have yet to earn my respect as coaches. They were nostalgia hires. If I were a Georgetown fan, I'd be feeling a lot better if the Hoyas hired Danny Manning.
