Despite not being listed in the Georgetown men's basketball staff directory, Ronny Thompson plays a major role for Georgetown men's basketball. Here's what we learned in conversations with current and former members of the program.
Priority #1 for Georgetown is to get Ronny out of the building. Everyone wants to blame Ewing which is fair. But Ronny has created the culture of secrecy, power moves and self-preservation.
Everything makes sense now to me: the mind-boggling attrition rate of both players and staffers, the lack of recruiting success in the DMV, the disconnect from fans and locals. paltry attendance, throwing players under the bus, etc.
And if Ronny stays, he handpicks his coach that allows him to do whatever it is that he does.
Georgetown will not get another cent from me til he’s gone.
Ronny Thompson has to go. He brings nothing to the GU program standing from afar it would appear that he is throwing salt on Ewing and the program. Ronny has been living on the coattails of his father's legacy without any real tangible skill set.
Great Article Aidan. Keep the pressure on them.

Really explains a lot. The shadow captian.
Kudos for great reporting.
