Dawn Staley was named AP Coach of the Year.
I asked Coach Staley about the women's game being treated as a real sport.
“I mean, I don't really want any credit. I want our game to be treated like a sport because when you do, you get this.”

With Georgetown traveling down to South Carolina, I had to make sure I asked Coach Ewing about Coach Dawn Staley and what she’s done for basketball.

Fans of the Hoyas, Big East and basketball, please send positive energy, prayers and thoughts to Michael Graham
@grahamike50
. After having a scare earlier this week, he’s back in the hospital today. He would do the same for all of us.
I will say this - I always felt like Patrick Ewing was kind and respectful to me on calls and after games. And I really appreciated it.
The 2021 BIG EAST Tournament run was fun. That was a good time.
#Hoyas
Hoya fans.. just remember that no matter how it looked tonight, things aren’t that bad. Ewing hit a HR with this class, they topped win totals (overall and conference) from last season, recruiting is looking good and the buzz is back. It’s moving in the right direction.

I wanted to share that my dad passed on Friday. And it’s been tough for me. My emotions and feelings have been all over the place.
Other than talking with my brother, I haven’t really said much. I do appreciate family and friends that have reached out. It has meant a lot to me.
I just heard a guy say John Wall hasn’t played well against Toronto this season.
Should I tell him that Wall missed all four of the regular season games?
But everybody is a basketball expert, right?
