Washington Post - GW Basketball Players Report Coach's "Verbal and Emotional Abuse"; Many Fled School (https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/colleges/gw-basketball-players-report-coachs-verbal-and-emotional-abuse-many-fled-school/2016/07/21/b7d5bd12-4dae-11e6-a7d8-13d06b37f256_story.html)

This would help to explain why GW has had an average of 3 players a year transferring (not graduating) out of the program each year during Lonergan's tenure. It would also explain a little bit why the team failed to make the NCAAs last year after making it a couple of years ago.

Lonergan has vehemently denied the allegations, but there are some pretty damning accusations in the article (especially as it relates to what he's alleged to have said about AD Patrick Nero).

ESPN.com - Mike Lonergan Fired from GW (http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/17566497/mike-lonergan-fired-george-washington-men-basketball-coach)

Given some of the accusations levied against Lonergan in the Washington Post article back in July, you had a feeling that it was only a matter of time before he would be dismissed. I'm not sure who the interim coach will be this year.
