Picture of the Week.


He should just quit to save himself from further embarrasment.  If this was what he was doing during the 2nd half, he must have been running out of the building in the first half. Now that I mention it, he should have just left the building so the team can relax and play their game without being yelled at every 10 seconds.

The Dirtiest Stats of the GW season.

  • Diggs 13 games only 11 started. He should be starting every game.
  • Tony Taylor 29.2 min per game. Leads the team in min. A freshman is leading the team in minutes. Granted he can be good someday but with multiple seniors on the team how is he getting the most min?
  • TT shooting .307% from the field. and he has taken the fourth most attempts. He is shooting better from 3pt range. (.310%).
  • X is shooting guess what .325 from the FT line. 
  • Spoon has YET to go to the line. WOW.
  • Team is shooting .627% from the line. Thats just not acceptable. 
  • Seldom played Opoku has 31 fouls in 146 min. Thats a foul every 4min and 45 sec.
  • They say in every sport that you hae to take care of the ball to have a chance to win:
  • Diggs 9 ast. 36 To. Hollis 13 ast. 35 To. Only three players have a favorable ratio TT (37/25) King (34/24) and surprisingly Spoon (20/5). WHY DOESNT SPOON PLAY AS MUCH AS TT?
  • On the year GW Ast/To ratio is 200/158.

You cant win if you dont take care of the ball and fail to make your Free Throws.

This is this coach's job to make sure that turnovers are held to a minimum. He is also supposed to teach them how to shoot.

Embarrassing Season Continues with 60-48 Loss to Richmond

The Colonials Lost their fifth straight game last night, 60-48, to the University of Richmond Spiders. A furious second half rally was not enough to bring GW back, as they found themselves down 34-14 at halftime.


Karl Hobbs explained the latest in a string of embarrassing losses by saying "we're a young team". YOUNG????? Our "best" players are Diggs, Spoon, Wilmore, and Hollis; 3 seniors and 1 junior. Young indeed.

For some reason Diggs, BY FAR OUR BEST PLAYER, sat for almost ten minutes in the first half as Wilmore, King, and Taylor threw up ridiculous shots after wasting the shot clock by passing the ball around near mid-court. The second half rally was 100% Diggs and Spoon. OH MY GOD WHAT A SHOCK.

This season is getting ridiculous. Mediocre high school basketball teams could have score as many baskets (3) as we did against a below-average A-10 team. It was by far the worst half of basketball I witnessed in my 3 years at GW, and probably the worst display by any athletic team I have ever seen in my life.

HOBBS IF YOU EVER READ THIS. TAYLOR HAS A GOOD HEART AND MAY BE GOOD SOME DAY, BUT RIGHT NOW HE HAS NO BUSINESS BEING ON THE COURT. JUST LET DIGGS AND SPOON PLAY 38 MINUTES AND TAKE 20 SHOTS A GAME EACH AND WE MAY HIT 10 WINS THIS YEAR.

PLEASE GW FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET A NEW COACH SO WE CAN REBUILD OUR BELOVED BASKETBALL PROGRAM!
