How Does Georgetown Get Credit for This Schedule?

I put this schedule together because I wanted this team to be tested.

That's John Thompson III on Georgetown's early schedule, which Andy Katz then breaks down, as if it's truly impressive. In fact, it goes a little something like this:

• Opener at Tulane
• Home against Temple
• Travel to Savannah State.
• Then the 3 headed monster of Lafayette, Mount St. Mary's and American at home
• Butler in New York at the Jimmy V Classic
  
• Washington at the Wooden Classic in Anaheim
• Home against CAA favorite Old Dominion.

Okay, that's a lot of traveling. But none of those sound like exceptionally tough teams. If Syracuse played that schedule we'd be hearing all about how SU plays no one until January.

I tell ya, no respect.
