Princeton quickly found its replacement for Ed Cooley.
English, 34, has been a head coach for two seasons. He was hired at George Mason ahead of the 2021-22 season and the Patriots went 14-16 after going 13-9 in the COVID-shortened 2020-21 season. This past season, George Mason was 20-13 and finished fifth in the Atlantic-10. The Patriots lost to St. Louis by 28 in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic-10 tournament.
Before he was hired at George Mason, English was an assistant at Tulsa, Colorado and Tennessee. He got into coaching in 2015 after a three-year professional career that included stops around the globe. A second-round pick of the Detroit Pistons in 2012, English played college basketball at Missouri and was a key part of the Tigers’ Big 12 tournament-winning team in their final season in the conference.
Cooley left for Georgetown after the Friars finished ahead of the Hoyas in the Big East standings. Providence was 13-7 in the Big East in 2022-23 while Georgetown was last with a 2-18 record under Patrick Ewing. Providence was one of five teams from the conference that made the NCAA tournament and the Friars lost 61-53 as a No. 11 seed to Kentucky in the first round.
Cooley had a 242-153 record in 12 seasons at Providence and takes over a Georgetown program with a lot more history even as it's struggled in recent seasons with Ewing at the helm.
