Unless Dunn returns, DSR is probably the pre-season favorite for player of the year in the conference.

He's gone, no?  I thought he declared last week.

I heard Dunn as of yesterday is leaning towards coming back. Kind of shocked.

I as referring to Smith-rivera. I thought Rivera would be back, but he's not coming back.

Said he withdrew his name from the draft and will be back at Georgetown next year.

whoa. Good thing he got smart before the 25th. Next year will benefit him

@JonRothstein: Kansas State transfer Marcus Foster will visit Creighton this weekend (4/17-19), source told @CBSSports. LSU also in the mix.

@JonRothstein: Georgetown will take a foreign tour to Italy in August, JT3 told @CBSSports. Hoyas will play exhibition games and have 10 practices.

@JonRothstein: Villanova will host Nebraska as part of the Big East-Big Ten Challenge, source told @CBSSports. Dates expected to be announced this week.

I'm still hoping we get a team like Nebraska.

Why? give us a big game. I want a Wisconsin return game.

Why would Nova get Nebraska? I want to play Michigan, Michigan St., or Ohio State.

That's awful.  Would think they would try to give Nova a better matchup

In 3 years I would agree. Think we will struggle next year.

I wont be surprised or upset if we do struggle next year. But regardless I'd rather play the best teams from the big 10 each year. Publicity and a good measuring stick.

My early Marillac-esque prediction is next years team will have a better record than Lavin's 2nd year.

+/- 13 wins and moose has the over? Me too, different league though.

If we have Jordan we can be good.

All depends on who else is added. Staff has filled some holes but we need to replace a lot of offense. Jordan and Williams will help but we need another player or two that can put the ball in the basket. Really hope they can pull off a miracle.

With that said I am very happy that they are building a roster for the next few years.

@JonRothstein: Georgetown will take a foreign tour to Italy in August, JT3 told @CBSSports. Hoyas will play exhibition games and have 10 practices.

And in a related note coach JT3 said he expects this Hoya squad to jell by Feb or March.

Spent my 4 undergrad years down there and many more years down there with my relatives in the summers. It is a great city with a ton to offer a college kid. However, once you graduate, it's time to move on unless you work in politics or something related to the federal gov't. DC has changed a ton for the better (much safer) since the early 2000's.

A date which will live in infamy

The challenge offers some great natural rivalries that do not get played often such as Georgetown/MD; Xavier/Ohio St.; Butler/Indiana-Purdue; DePaul/NW-Ill; Marquette/Wisc-Minn; Creighton/Neb-Iowa; Nova/Penn St.; SH/RU; and what I would love as a double header in MSG SJU & Prov/ Mich & MSU
