Could not have happened to a more deserving program. Short term memory loss here. Karl Charles, Jack Stevens and Will Powers.

We also shouldn't forget the immortal Tyrone Cohen a charter member of the worst recruiting class in HC history.

Could not have happened to a more deserving program. Short term memory loss here. Karl Charles, Jack Stevens and Will Powers. Poor analogy. The premise as I read it is that Georgetown goes out and recruits kids that really don't have the academic qualifications to be in the school, sets up special accommodations, and got burned by reaping what they sow.I don't think HC does anything close to that for its athletes. I suppose you could make the argument that the three in question shouldn't have met the academic standards of HC if they were stupid enough to get caught doing something widely done. Yup, the three individuals acted foolishly and violated an NCAA rule. Unless you're suggesting HC also messed by not monitoring these players closely enough, I don't follow the logic of implying HC was deserving of the incident.

Georgetown has shown how little integrity it really has by playing these guys even with multiple claims (robbery and assault) filed against them. It shows that it has zero shame. Winning basketball games is far more important to the school than setting a an example of decency.

I am reminded that "those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." HC has had unfortunate things happen recently so I believe we should hold up on any stone throwing. I believe HC did well to identify the problems and to address them with disciplinary action against the students involved. Hopefully, there will be no such incidents in the future (or at least far fewer than in the last few years).

Will Powers is apparently in solid academic standings and is a member of the HC Lacrosse team for the upcoming season. Jack Stevens is enrolled at Cornell University.

Glad to hear he is doing well and will graduate a Crusader, and a Crusader student athlete no less. Could give a rats rump about Jack Stevens but I know hes from Ithaca so hopefully he found a nice home at Cornell. Chances are he'll do OK with a degree from there...

I'm not a regular on this board, so I doubtless missed the news. Exactly what did the three HC players allegedly do?

It has never been publicly stated - other than as a "violation of team rules" and that was not in an official release IIRC. It should be long retired, but there are some who will never let it go.

Always wonder why some can't put the past in the rear view mirror...not name calling, just wondering.

Simple answer, NAD: The older you get, the more road is in your rearview mirror and the less there is in the road ahead.

Will Powers is apparently in solid academic standings and is a member of the HC Lacrosse team for the upcoming season. Jack Stevens is enrolled at Cornell University. Powers must be a pretty good athlete. Walked on to a D-I basketball team. Then, after most likely not playing lacrosse for the last three years, makes that team as well. Not too many people can play two different D-I sports

I'm an outsider here, so I try to avoid commenting on your internal issues. But, it seems ludicrous to me to compare your recent issues to anything happening at Georgetown.
As Father Brooks said to John Thompson and Dean Smith, "Because what you people are doing has very little to do with education." It was true when he said it and it remains true today.

Not sure if he's set to graduate at the end of this semester or the Spring He is not on the current basketball team. Did he play for them last year? Tyrone Cohen IS on the 2019-2020 Pace basketball team and is listed as a senior.

Tyrone Cohen IS on the 2019-2020 Pace basketball team and is listed as a senior. He did not play last year. Karl played for HC during the 2017-18 season right into second semester. I assume that last year would have been a transfer sit out year

I assume that last year would have been a transfer sit out year So Charles is enrolled at Pace now but not on the team this year or last year? Maybe he just decided to move on from basketball. If he moved down from DI to D2 he would have been eligible to play right away.
