Georgetown fired head basketball coach John Thompson III on Thursday, ending a successful 13-year run in which he became the school's second-winningest head coach.
Jeff Goodman of ESPN and Evan Daniels of Scout.com reported the news.
Thompson, the son of legendary Hoyas coach John Thompson, went 278–151 during his tenure. The Hoyas made eight NCAA tournaments, including the 2007 Final Four, but had fallen off since the inception of the new Big East conference.
