and that's an improvement from earlier on in the half- 38-9 at the under 4 timeout so a 13-10 run to end the half for X.

Saw Xavier earlier this week and was impressed with them. Not sure how to process the ass whopping that UConn is giving them.

UConn is just on another level right now especially at home.

saw this on twitter-
Via @ESPNStatsInfo : UConn’s 43-point win over Xavier today was its second-largest margin of victory ever in a Big East game and its largest since 2008 against Cincinnati. Huskies’ third-ever Big East win by at least 40 points.

If they make the tournament I’m pulling for them

But the personal and straight up toxic shit against Cooley and his family is just sad at this point . PC fans in real life I’m sure are good people but the social media army is honestly disgusting .

I’ve seen fans make fun of Cooley for his hair, his son being called a junkie , wife and daughter a whore. All of it .

Sorry for ranting it just pisses me off

Good game and good win for PC yesterday . HOPING Georgetown gets revenge in DC(likely they won’t)

Cooley has a tone-deaf, egotistical postgame presser.

Me: Please, can Ed Cooley just go away and shut the F up?

The 17 remaining fans in Hoya Nation: Why are Friar fans so mean to Ed Cooley, he's living in your head?

PC Crowd yesterday: Fun, happy, no violence, no threats, laughing, dancing, some *mild* F-bomb chanting.

17 Member Hoya Nation: Friars are so mean. Let me make sh-t up even though the atmosphere was nothing like the hellscape that we predicted.

Cooley, after 12 years of being paid $5 million a year for 3 NCAA wins: PC should pay me for this atmosphere.

Me: Can Cooley just go the F away?

Cooley: if it wasnt for Providence, i could never have gotten the job at mighty 4-76 Georgetown.

17 Hoyas: i'm gonna make believe that Friar fans made fun of Cooley's alopecia.

Me: WTF?

It's a credit to PC's administration that they kept Cooley's multiple transgressions in-house. I think I speak for all Friar fans that if Ed left gracefully, even to Georgetown, yesterday wouldn't have been as harsh. But his ego wouldn't allow that. He had to get his national media sycophants to push the narrative that he took PC as far as he could and needed to leave.

Ed will improve Georgetown from its current funk. But he will be miserable playing in front of 4K fans with zero student support. And I don't see that changing even with the wins.

Could be interesting with Xavier. Do they come out desprate in a must win for them or does this loss linger? Never know how teams will respond.

I don't give a damn how pissed X is, we just gotta come with the same intensity on defense as we did with nova.

Sometimes they don't hustle for a full 40 minutes in games, if SJU ever gets that mind set to play 40 minutes of defense in every game, we'll hang with anyone in the country, including UConn.
