With educational funding so much in flux, and the crackdown on intl students, a pool that Gtown relies on more than most, and potential increased taxes on endowments, I suspect that any chance that GU Admin is going to invest in a McDonough upgrade or new arena in Rosslyn etc. is virtually zero under the current administration. I think most universities are now trying to limit spending because many of their income streams could be curtailed and their tax liability could be materially increased. There is a real war going on against universities by this administration and it does not appear to be going away anytime soo. To pretend that Georgetown will not be adversely influenced by it, is fairly ignorant, in my opinion.
Yurt7 is one of the best players for Panathinakos who are in the Greek championship v Olympiakos. That he is playing in Greece is interesting in and of itself, given that many Greeks are no not at all fond of Turks given the history.
Series tied 1-1 but temporarily suspended due to violence and related issues. Game 3 now TENTATIVELY rescheduled for Friday. Panathinakos owner Dimitris Giannakopoulos thrown out of game 2 via force at halftime following heated exchange with refs with security teams from both teams coming to blows and fighting each other. Head coach Ergin Ataman was ejected in the fourth quarter. Giannakopoulos then went on IG and accused the govt and Olympiakos of corruption Prime minster of Greece and owner of Olympiakos are very close friends and in each other's weddings. Both owners summoned to the Greek Govt Sports Minister today.
My daughter was at Game 1 and said it was the most active passionate fan base she has ever seen live in a sporting event.

“They let me know how interested they are. Pretty much every time we talk, or they talk with us, they let me know they want to get me on campus soon. I know a lot about their history with Allen Iverson... I think Ed Cooley is a really good coach, so I hope to get on a visit soon”
