G L I D E H O Y A S: 2011 Hoya Hoop Club Hoyas Open Practice

Now that's the big dog

Hoyanation and friends, I'd have to say I had a great time at the Hoyas open practice on the Hilltop of Georgetown University in McDonough Gymnasium. It was also homecoming 2011 Hoyas football team. Shout out to the Hoyas football team with a big 40-17 in homecoming fashion. The son of Hoya great, Gene Smith, Nathaniel Gene Bellamy, is a sophomore 5-11, 185 pound defensive back. His father was the starting point guard on the 1984 Georgetown National Championship team. Also, he proudly wears his father's #22 on his college jersey.

Was good to see some of the Hoya supporters we all just took in some enjoyment of seeing our new Hoyas in the mix at the open practice. Walking in McDonough, it was great to see the Hoyas in drill mode. Great to see and old friend of ours Hoya great Roy Hibbert in the blue and gray uni. He was wearing the Hoya pratice gear donning #20. Great to speak with some of the fans and Hoya family that's always a pleasure. It's truly time for the Hoyas to make some noise. I know it's still football season, but Hoya hoops is right around the block. I had a great time, just wanted to make this short and cool. Hoyanation, check these out, not the best, but "Good To Go!"

Sophomore point guard Markel Starks gets a little breather before his foul shot in practice and he has the gray tee under his practice jersey, all he needed was a Nike Swoosh sneaker logo on the both sleeves like the legendary Patrick Ewing wore on both sleeves of his gray tee

Freshman Jabril Trawick brings the ball up while sophomore point guard Markel Starks is ready to guard. Great practice matchup, both make each other better! Let's Go Hoyas!
