The college basketball season breaks down into four segments: Non-conference games, conference games, conference tournament, postseason.
Caveat: That last segment only comes to those who qualify for the NCAA Tournament or the less interesting NIT (There are also those pay-to-play events, but...). Georgetown's gloomy 15-18 campaign kept the Hoyas from reaching the fourth stage. After a home debacle against Arkansas State and two blowout losses in Maui dropped the current Hoyas to 2-4, fears that another three-segment campaign was on deck showed in force.
Since then, six straight wins. Certainly, 8-4 looks better, but have the Hoyas put themselves in good position for an NCAA at-large berth if needed?
