In this episode of the Finger Wag Podcast, hosts Gideon Hertz and Jake Foote discuss the Hoyas' recent exhibition game against George Washington. They provide a detailed analysis of player performances, big takeaways and what you should be excited about from an intense exhibition.

For this #FingerWAGFridays edition of the Pod, we've got a practice report ahead of Georgetown's opening exhibition game against George Washington. We'll give you a full rundown of everything we saw and heard at Georgetown's Gameday-eve practice, and talk through what to expect from a GW team with sky-high expectations this season.

Gideon Hertz (@GMHertz) and Jake Foote (@Footahh) are joined by Bulldog aficionado, Michael DeRosa (@MDtheDream), to accurately and unequivocally predict how the '25-'26 Big East Basketball season will play out for the Georgetown Hoyas, including:

What is KenPom getting wrong about the Big East (in general) and Georgetown (specifically)?
Are the Hoyas really the second-worst team in the conference?
Who is better, UConn or St. John's?
Which BE Bulldog will reign supreme?
Predicting all of the BE Awards

With Hoyas basketball officially getting underway, the Finger WAG has you covered with a full Non-Conference preview: https://youtu.be/nzMhhSJJvTI

Gideon Hertz (@GMHertz) and Jake Foote (@Footahh) dive into a comprehensive preview of the Big East basketball conference, and aren't afraid to ask the tough questions!

Can talent save Kim English's job?
Does DePaul no longer suck?
What happens when you give one of the greatest CBK coaches of all time, one of the most expensive rosters ever?
Is Creighton, Iowa?
Is Kevin Willard actually good?

We answer those burning questions and so many more to get you ready for a Big East season for the ages (but maybe not in a good way?).

And stay tuned for our predictions special in Pt. 2.

The Finger WAG Podcast is back! And gearing up for a make-or-break year for the Hoyas. Gideon Hertz (@GMHertz) and Jake Foote (@Footahh) preview the 2025 Non-Conference schedule, including key matchups against teams like Maryland, BYU (hopefully), and North Carolina, and share their wildly accurate predictions.
