According to people familiar with the situation, the incident began during the first half of the game when Mason overheard Fish make what he considered an inappropriate comment about a Georgia player. Mason, who sat next to Fish on the bench, brought up the remark to Fish immediately after and then again in the locker room at the intermission. It was then that the altercation turned physical with Mason pushing, and possibly punching, Fish.
Mason returned to the bench to continue his coaching duties. Georgia returned to Athens following the lopsided loss without further action despite three members of Georgia’s senior administration being on the trip, according to one person familiar with the situation. The following day, Mason began his scouting assignment for the game at Texas A&M on Feb. 22. Mason later was informed that a complaint had been filed with the athletic association’s human resource department. He later was suspended.

Suspended with pay makes no sense

Usually a precursor to termination either to allow for an investigation into an allegation or to carry out the required procedural steps for termination.

None of them are going to work here anymore. They all about to go and need to.
We should charge them with felony theft for their pay checks.

Very vague in the article. Wonder what happened?

Georgia basketball has been a shite show since the Jim Harrick affair. I know some of the old-line Dawg faithful who celebrated at the time.

They should all be suspended without pay.

Does this mean we can fire Crean with cause?
