Georgetown Hoyas Centers Big Man Legacy




Posted by Jeff Chan Categories: NCAA, College Basketball,

Georgetown Center LegacyGeorgetown is back as a Big East force this season, currently ranked 17th in the nation.  Guess what, one of their better players is a center, in 7’2” Roy Hibbert.  Hibbert had an impressive 20 point 12 rebound game in Georgetown’s loss to Villanova yesterday.

Since the Patrick Ewing left the Hoyas, there was the Dikembe Mutombo, Alonzo Mourning era of big men.  Since then, there have been big guys in the paint, who have made it to the pros, but haven’t made the same impact at Georgetown or in the NBA.  After Mourning, there was eras of Othella Harrington, Jahidi White, Mike Sweetney, and who can forget Ruben Boumtje Boumtje?  Hopefully Hibert will continue to improve on his game, and bring Georgetown back to it’s glory days.
