Georgetown University or Men's Basketball: Which Will Have the Better Ranking?

The U.S. News & World Report National Universities Rankings came out today and Georgetown moved up two whole spots to #21!.  Hip Hip Hooray.  Everyone should take this news to their boss and demand a pay raise.

Now I am well aware these rankings are complete poppycock and the Georgetown brand carries more weight than many ahead of it on the list, but the #21 ranking is eerily similar to where some have placed the Georgetown men's basketball team for the 2010-11 season.  This begs the obvious question:

I work with a guy

Whose name is Steve Curry and who went to Vandy. If he ate oranges all day, he’d be like the embodiment of recent GU history.

Also of note, introducing yourself as a GU grad to a Vandy grad is the best way to determine how sore they are about Jeff Green’s slick moves. My findings: still quite.

Why so Syracuse?

I repeat my demand for a “Rebrand the Princeton/PrinceTown Offense” contest

Thank you

I think my mistake was first making the demand in an article that was archived.

Rankings

Interesting tidbit via Vox

Despite being #21 in the random algorithm used by US News, Gtown is 6th according to High School Guidance Counselors

I’m going to demand a raise and a corner office now

Good talk.
