Sorry to step in, but mviusa is just ignorant here. He cites what Georgetown did in the 2009 Women's NIT, but neglects to mention the last three years: 26-7, 24-11, 23-9 -- three trips to NCAA Tournament, including Sweet 16 in 2011. The Hoyas have been a top 25 team the last five times USF played them -- including an upset win for the Bulls in 2011 in Tampa.
Absolutely, it would have been huge for USF to keep Faith Woodard at home, but Georgetown has been one of the Big East's best women's basketball programs in the last three years, so it's not a shock to lose a top recruit to the Hoyas.
