Game Preview

The drama surrounding coach Ed Cooley’s departure from Providence to Georgetown nearly 12 months ago is about to add an unexpected chapter.

Cooley will get one more chance to defeat his former school when his 10th-seeded Hoyas face the seventh-seeded Friars in the first round of the Big East tournament on Wednesday.

Many Providence fans were upset when Cooley left his hometown program after 12 seasons to join a conference rival. While Georgetown (9-22) had a difficult first season of the Cooley era — its only two Big East wins coming over winless DePaul — Providence (19-12) contended for an at-large NCAA Tournament bid under first-year coach Kim English.
