Mike Stokes, Bill Thomas, Craig Esherick, Mike MacDermott, Jeff Bullis, David Blue, Terry Fenlon, Emmet Fitzgerald, David Dunn (transferred to Alabama), Brian Kelly, Vladimir Bosanac, Mike Sabol (transferred to American), and Brendan Gaughan were all Caucasian players under scholarship during John Thompson Sr.'s (JT) tenure at Georgetown. Actually during the 1970s, several Caucasian Basketball players were quite prominent and even had starting roles when JT was coach. Mike Stokes was part of the first recruiting class (Class of 1976) under JT. He had significant playing time and showed a lot of promise during his freshman year, but I do not know what happened afterwards. Other Caucasian players including Thomas, Esherick, MacDermott, and Bullis also had significant playing time either as starters or important role players during the 70s. It was during the 1980s that JT apparently stopped using white basketball players. He did recruit a few though (including Danny Ferry and Rex Chapman) but they went elsewhere. That was when the perception was created that JT was allegedly a racist who refused to utilize white players. He didn't have a single Caucasian player on scholarship from 1984 until the end of the 80s. During the early 1990s, JT had several Caucasian players on the roster, but most were benchwarmers and only Brian Kelly had a significant role. Afterwards, JT again stopped using Caucasian players and through most of the 1990s, there was not a single Caucasian player on Georgetown's basketball team (not even as a walk-on or benchwarmer).
