It’s weird—but very welcome—that members of the Georgetown Hoyas are making appearances before the season as Wayne Bristol, Jr., Jay Heath, and Ryan Mutombo stopped by Hoya Locker Room in the last few weeks to talk with hosts Gene Smith and Markhum Stansbury. Many thanks to Gene and Markhum for continuing Hoya Locker Room and cutting all the red tape to get these returning players to appear on the program. The conversations are very worthwhile and, while they paint a rough picture of last year, they certainly boost optimism for the upcoming season.
