Providence Twitter Strikes Again - Ed Cooley Had To Answer Rumors Started From Parody Accounts That He Was Leaving Georgetown To Take The Virginia Job

I don't know how we got here, but somehow it happened again. Simon Charles, a well known parody account, especially in the Big East, struck again. He started a chain reaction of people talking about Ed Cooley leaving Georgetown to take the Virginia job. All of this despite the fact it was announced that Ron Sanchez is taking over for Tony Bennett. Facts don't matter in the Big East Twitter world. 

But that's how we get Ed Cooley doing an interview talking about this

The fact it was asked is as batshit crazy as anyone believing it. The fact Ed Cooley had to seriously answer that he was not leaving to take the Virginia job is a win for Providence. 3-0 since Ed Cooley left. This is what I want from the Big East. They are all unhinged lunatics (in the most complementary way) joined by Villanova fans. They will make up ridiculous stories like Tyler Kolek can't read and have it addressed by the school. 

Now during Big East Media Day and from the FOX Sports official account we have Ed Cooley responding to parody accounts. Fucking hilarious and perfect. Long live the Big East, man. It's what college sports is supposed to be. Dumb, fueled by hate and awesome program/games. I'm begging people to stop falling for parody accounts, but also, give me this sort of content.
