It was the idea of Georgetown President John J. DeGioia and Head Coach Bob Benson. The squad learns the song during preseason by having each position group sing off against another group with the loser earning extra conditioning the next day. Georgetown’s first rendition of the song came at Lafayette on October 5, 2003. The Hoyas have con- tinued the revived tradition ever since. GEORGETOWN FIGHT SONG “It’s been so long since last we met In the clouds will proudly float the Blue Lie down forever, lie down and Gray.” Oh, have you any money to bet Lie down forever, lie down!” “We’ve heard those loyal fellows up at Yale “There goes old...

  • Title Page Abstract and Table of Contents
    REFLECTIONS ON GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS: PAST, PRESENT, AND A PROPOSAL FOR THE FUTURE. A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Michael J. Callahan, B.S.F.S Georgetown University Washington, D.C. March 28, 2012 REFLECTIONS ON GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS: PAST, PRESENT, AND A PROPOSAL FOR THE FUTURE. Michael J. Callahan, B.S.F.S MALS Mentor: Shelly Habel, Ph.D ABSTRACT Intercollegiate Athletics Programs in America generally follow two models, “Competitive” Athletics and “Participatory” Athletics. “Competitive” athletic teams are well funded and capable of winning conference and NCAA championships. “Participatory” athletic teams are not well funded and are not expected to win. “Participatory” teams are centered around the idea of providing student-athletes an opportunity to compete in a sport they enjoy playing. Georgetown University, a member of the Big East Athletic Conference, is operating its Athletic Department using both the “Competitive” and “Participatory” models. Georgetown University’s marquee athletic program is Men’s Basketball and membership in the Big East Conference has proven to be very valuable for the team and the University. The exposure of the program and the University on national television broadcasts gives Georgetown a tremendous amount of publicity. Revenues from ticket sales and merchandising have also proven to be very lucrative. The Big East Conference is great for the game of basketball but the same cannot be said for all sports at Georgetown.
