It would also be helpful if Georgetown as an institution stepped up for Ed, too, particularly in communications.

He was announced on Monday-- it’s now Saturday and his Twitter account is still CoachCooleyPC and has a Providence bio. (His Cameo is actually updated!)

The press release being filled with multiple errors and leading to a 404 page.

The laggy stream on the presser.

Georgetown has to do a better job, because some of these errors are inexcusable.

Matt, you are so right. This isn't a recent problem either. These types of errors have been longstanding.

Amen to that 👍

As for Ed Cooley, two precedents come to mind. He could be another Tommy Lasorda, whose infectious enthusiasm ignited the Dodgers in 1977 to win 3 National League pennants in 5 years and a World Series championship. Or, Cooley could pan out as another Elmer Gantry. Only time will tell.

I’d prefer we go with Bruce Bochy in SF getting 3 titles in 5 years, but either way, 3 titles in 5 years sounds good

From his rah-rah tone at the press conference, Cooley sounded a lot more like Lasorda than Bochy.
