True, but we're missing two starters and no one cares in the NIT

This is such a ridiculous statement. We lost to a decent Washington (4 NBA players including Isaiah Thomas) team by 3, and a Michigan State team who was a ridiculous 7 seed and ended up making the final score by 7.

Don't get me wrong, I completely understand the reasoning behind wanting to fire Fox. I just think it's moreso due to his regular season struggles than the postseason ones.


ETA: That Washington team won the PAC-12 tourney as well. We didn't get favorable draws at all. Just need to make the tourney more than twice in eight years.

Serious question

What can you point to about UGA basketball under Mark Fox and say, "This is our strength and this is what we are going to do consistently well the whole year"? Every year we are average defensively, we are average on the boards, and usually excluding 1-2 guys, we are an abysmal shooting team.

I would say possibly our ability to consistently make it to the free throw line? Anything else?

Seems like a lot of Fox's success has come off of individual talent (ex. Frazier, Maten, KCP, Gaines, Mann, Travis Leslie, Trey Thompkins), which he is not a good enough of a recruiter to maintain.
