Monroe Verbals to Hoyas

John Thompson III, already doing a great job at Georgetown, has received a verbal commitment from Greg Monroe, a 6-10 power forward from Harvey, Louisiana. This is by far Thompson's biggest commitment to date and it will establish Georgetown at the top of the Big East Conference for a long time. Monroe is a great rebounder with tremendous upside. Monroe committed on his visit to Georgetown for their Midnight Madness festivities.

Georgetown beat out Duke, Connecticut, LSU, and Texas for Monroe's services.
