Not like he used to coach there and left for Georgetown, nor are they in the Big East.

He only leaves Big East schools for Georgetown.

He didn’t grow up in Illinois, he didn’t play there or anything like that.

This is just him, out of nowhere, calling Illinois a bullshit school.

Well, Ed, you made a disaster of a mistake.

Good luck dealing with that and giving Providence even more ammo.

The last thing you want to do is give Friar Twitter and fans more ammo to work with.

Not to mention, you’re coaching at Georgetown.

Georgetown still fucking stinks.

Congrats on beating St. Francis, Mount St. Mary’s, Fairfield and Lehigh.

A real dangerous group there.

And you’re talking about Jayden Epps here.

He started while he was at Illinois.

It’s not like he was buried and not getting playing time.

This whole thing is bizarre and just more to the downfall of Ed Cooley.

He was king at Providence.

He was mostly beloved in college hoops.

Now he’s trying too hard to be a villain and Illinois is ready to attack.
