“I am in complete agreement with his leaving and we will assist him in any way we can,” Head Coach Patrick Ewing said. “We wish him well in his future endeavors.”
Agau, who averaged 4.5 points and 4.3 rebounds in 15 minutes per game last season, will be eligible to play next season as a graduate transfer.
Agau transferred to Georgetown from Louisville after the 2014-15 season, but missed his sophomore campaign due to a torn ACL. Agau played in every game for the Hoyas last year and carved out a role as a dependable defensive presence in the post and on the glass.
Georgetown now has 9 players under scholarship for next season. With Tre Campbell perhaps out for the season with a knee injury and Trey Mourning’s status in doubt, Patrick Ewing is hosting a trio of transfers this weekend in PG Trey Dickerson, SG Mark Alstork, and SF Nahziah Carter.
Best of luck to Akoy, he’s a good kid and we wish him well.
