Although he is no longer with us, Coach Gavitts memory will live on in Friartown. This season, all Friar athletic teams will wear DG patches in honor of him. The mens basketball team will continue to play all its home games on the Dave Gavitt Court at the Dunkin Donuts Center and his retired jersey will always hang in the rafters.

Ed Cooley has an infectious personality, a driving spirit to work hard and win, and is one of the warmest people youll meet. You can scour the country and find plenty of hometown success stories of coaches coming back to their alma maters or places where they grew up. But there will be few that can match the authenticity of Cooley and Providence. --- Andy Katz ESPN.com Senior College Basketball Writer ``Ed Cooley is the ideal choice for Providence. He has that rare ability to connect with players, yet also command the respect that is needed to succeed at the highest level. It's not just the story of the local kid coming home; but a local kid who truly fits back home. Providence needs an outgoing coach that will go out, sell the program and also be able to land big-time recruits. I think Ed Cooley can do all those things and make Providence a player in the Big East." ---Jeff Goodman FOXSports.com Senior Basketball Writer
Theres a difference between working hard and being good at your job. Ed Cooley is good at his job and thats what sets him apart. He is considered to be an outstanding coach by his peers. He knows what it means to go out and evaluate studentathletes. --- Dave Telep ESPN.com Senior Basketball Recruiting Analyst
