Man, this team — assertive win over #5 Xavier, perhaps the most impressive under Cooley so far. More thoughts later!
Markus Howard is shooting 100% from the free throw line this year. Yep, he's 51/51. He had 37 against Villanova yesterday, on the heels of his 52 against PC. Wow.Markus Howard is special. And it was a small miracle that the Friars overcame a second half deficit without Bullock, who missed the game due to the flu.
Absolutely. I'm just glad someone else is watching this. This might be one of the most enjoyable sporting events I've seen in years, regardless of the outcome. Just fantastic to watch these coaches work, and even the little stuff we catch from the players is great.17-0 run however the star of the night is Cooley with the mic
I thought Leitao did way less coaching in-game than Cooley. Long stretches of complete silence from him.I took notes of some of the more interesting quotes (more to follow), but a high level observation: DePaul’s coach (Leitao) spoke in the most generic and boring platitudes, while Cooley came off as really incisive and entertaining. Quite a contrast.
Wow, I hadn’t heard that. We’ll always have the Georgetown game.Solid victory, first half shooting and second half turnovers notwithstanding. Was excited until I heard at the end that they’d dedicated the game to Pop Lewis, who died suddenly last week. Now I’m sad...
