Watching the Hoyas

Keeping an eye on the slow resurgence of the Georgetown Hoyas has been enjoyable. First of all, their bringing back of Patrick Ewing as head coach was an interesting move, and one, if it works, that will prolong the John Thompson Story. But also having James Akinjo and Mac McClung in the same backcourt with a year's experience under their belts is going to be fun. The interesting picture of having a hotshot white guard playing for a black coach at a program that has been overwhelmingly black for a long, long time is in itself compelling.
