Really?
Florida has gone from .617 to .571 winning % while Georgia has gone from .385 to .500
You're winning less than you were and they're winning more than they were, so there's that.
I guess head to head no longer matters.

It matters, but being realistic also matters.
UGA doesn't put much support into men's basketball, while UF puts quite a bit of effort into the sport. Comparing accomplishments at UGA vs UF in basketball is like comparing Vandy to UF in football. A better coach can lose head to head matchups at Vandy to UF and still be better.
At UGA, if we make the tournament once every 4-5 seasons, we consider our basketball program in a good place. It feels like White will get to that point with how he's building UGA. I don't expect him to do what he did at UF, where he made the tournament in 4 out of 7 seasons and that wasn't considered good enough. If he did get to that same level, he'd be one of the top 5 UGA basketball coaches of all time.
THe bar is low for basketball in Athens for a reason. We just want to be decent.
