Crean is no Bruce! Plus I’ve been a basketball fan for the longest.

Crean and Pearl inherited very different programs

Mark Fox was competent. Low ceiling, but competent. Tony Barbee was not competent.

Tom Crean has a better record than Bruce Pearl did after 2 years.

I mean, Bruce took over the dumpster fires of all dumpster fires from Tony Barbee. Mark Fox was okay. Crean deserves a couple more years, but another losing SEC record next year is going to turn that pressure up

Auburn was awful under Barbee. UGA was competitive under FOX

At Marquette and Indiana.

Succeeding at those programs in no way guarantees success at a historically shitty program like UGA

Meh. We were never going to make the tournament. We won 2 SEC games last year and 9/13 of our players are freshman. It’s always been a 3-4 year rebuild.

Just based off what I saw at Indiana he's good when he has a star player to carry him and the team respects him. That did not happen in his final years in Indiana. He lost control of those teams.

Fox is a better coach but Crean is a better recruiter.

You think Hammonds stays?

Either way that's another 5-13 or 6-12 team

Probably but we are developing a talented young core who could be really solid in 2-3 years.

Don’t forget we have 6-11 Rodney Howard. Hopefully he can develop.
