One of the area's most-missed college basketball matchups appears to be coming back, and soon. Maryland and Georgetown are close to renewing their men's basketball rivalry beginning in 2024, Terrapins head coach Kevin Willard said Tuesday.

The momentum to reboot the series comes as former Providence coach Ed Cooley takes over the Hoyas’ reins and Willard begins his second year in College Park. The two are close friends dating to their days as Big East foes when Willard coached at Seton Hall. “Well, he bought dinner the other night, so that was a good start,” Willard said. “We’re close, he’s a really good friend.”
Willard also said Maryland will compete in the Empire Classic at Madison Square Garden next season. That tournament will mark the second time the Long Island native will compete in his home state of New York as Terrapins coach after last year’s Basketball Hall of Fame Classic in Brooklyn. Willard also touched on the future of what the Big Ten basketball will look like next season when the league adds four West Coast schools to its roster. He believes that the conference will expand from its current 20-game schedule to 22.
