Georgetown Coach Ed Cooley Apologizes for Comment
Georgetown coach Ed Cooley faced backlash after calling Illinois a 'bullshit school' during a post-game discussion about Jayden Epps, a guard who transferred from Illinois to Georgetown. Cooley made the comment following the Hoyas' victory over Saint Francis, praising Epps' defensive development while disparaging his former program. He later apologized on social media, clarifying that his remark was made in jest and expressing respect for the University of Illinois and its basketball program. Illinois coach Brad Underwood downplayed the incident, stating it was not worth his time and emphasizing Epps' successful freshman year at Illinois. Cooley's comments ignited reactions from Illinois fans, who pointed out Georgetown's struggles over the past decade. This incident highlights the tension that can arise even between non-rival programs in college basketball.
