Georgia fans are dumb enough to think that you can't appreciate/focus on more than one sport, interestingly, and have accordingly decided to put all their eggs in the natty-laden ( ) football basket.

They haven’t focused on any sports over the past 30 years apparently. No school has more riches and does less with them than Georgia.

Eerily, this heavily mirrors the Athens music scene.

We are a football school and aren't trying to fool ourselves into believing we can win it all in basketball.

Tennessee, Auburn and LSU all decided there football teams were shite and are now basketball groupies.

Y'all think 1980 is along time for not winning a NC at football wait till 100 years from now and we can all laugh at Tennessee, Auburn and LSU for not winning anything in basketball.

UGA was plenty excited for basketball when Harrick and Tubby were there.

Just takes 1 coach.

UF pulls top 10 classes in football and can’t even finish the season ranked, so thats one school that does less.

It's a valid question all and all.

The SEC in general is sub par outside of Kentucky which is the gold standard for the SEC and possibly the country as a whole year in and out.

Stegman is old as shite...

We’re a 2.5 trick pony. Georgia is among the half of the conference that has won the CWS, and they’re a club sport power.

UGA has won ONE, that's O_N_E, SEC Championship in MBB since the conference started in the 1930s. I was 1990. (Note: SEC championships are given only to the team with the best regular season record. The winner of the SEC MBB Tournament is a tournament champion.) In that regard, UGA has been very consistent.

Why not? Imagine if y'all got a coach like Donovan or Pitino.

The right hire can make a huge change in basketball fairly quickly. Unfortunately, the right hire is hard to find and attract without support from the administration.

Same reason the baseball stadium is the size of a high school stadium. It wasn’t until Kirby arrived they started taking their football facilities seriously. Georgia has a shite ton of money in reserves too.

Our baseball stadium was by far the worst in the SEC. Finally got replaced last year.

Imagine comparing UF football, which has won 3 natty’s and numerous SEC titles, to a doormat program that’s been to ONE sweet 16 since 1990.
