Patrick Ewing’s coaching tenure in Georgetown hasn’t gone nearly as well as his playing days, and we’re not expecting it to get any better Wednesday when his Hoyas face-off against the ascending Villanova Wildcats.

Villanova vs. Georgetown prediction
Patrick Ewing will always have 1984.
He will always have the improbable 2021 Big East title run.
But his final two seasons at his alma mater will make it hard for him to get another shot to be a head coach again.
After losing 37 of 39 Big East games in the past two seasons, the Knicks legend’s final game with Georgetown will come at his longtime home.
While the Wildcats have begun to find their form late in their first season under Kyle Neptune, the Hoyas have lost their past two games by a total of 60 points.
Georgetown won just one opening-round game in Ewing’s previous five seasons.
