High hopes for next year but definitely concerned at the lack of progress and success this year. A deficient roster but not one that should have gone 2-17 in SEC play. ...
Major disappointment if we are not a tourney team next year. With Edwards and Claxton we will have the talent. Need to see significant improvement from the staff in year 2....
Made 24 combined FGs in the last 2 games. 3 made shots for every 10 minutes on the clock, that's shockingly bad. Frustrating that every game we struggle giving up OREB, we turn the ball over twice as much as our opponent and we get behind at halftime. Trailed at the half in 17 of our 18 SEC games. H...
[quote]He basically told all of them they weren’t good enough to play for him, so not surprising.[/quote] Quit on him so much they played Mississippi State, LSU and Auburn to the buzzer at home, lost by 1 at Ole Miss and won in Gainesville.... Oh wait, that doesn't fit the narrative. My bad....
[quote]Walker Kessler for the post. His name hasn’t been linked to UGA as much as it was when CMF was here but you gotta believe the family legacy still overshadows a lot.[/quote] We are out for Kessler unfortunately. Big boys got involved and he dropped us. Virginia, Duke, UNC, maybe Vandy...
Neither of them can be a lead ball handler but they both can shoot and slash from the wing, spread the floor and help us be quicker and shoot better. Fit great in the Crean system. Add those 2 with Edwards and we look like an entirely different team next year. A big 3 of Edwards, Hammonds and Claxto...
I think he will be a Dawg. Sold on being the guy at his home state, close to home. Loves the D Wade, Oladipo factors from Crean. FSU still worries me but still think we lead going into this week so I like to hear that he moved up his announcement to Monday morning. Love that he took the early offici...
I'll be at the game tonight, looking forward to it. Hope Hancock can give us another good outing against a hot hitting team. Need to win this series....

I think he might be a better fit here, Indiana is a tough job to maintain. He had injuries to a few all conference players his last year that completely derailed that season. Was at 14-6 with several top ten wins before those season ending injuries halted it. ...

[quote]He emphasizes pressure defense and a very up tempo offense. Pretty much the exact opposite of what we had with Fox. Should be fun to watch guys like Hightower, Hammonds, Claxton, Crump, Hagans (hopefully), etc. running the court instead of trying to play a half court game. [/quote] Agreed...

Pretty excited about this. Has some concerns but is an upgrade over what we had. Really important to see who he hires as assistants but I'm in on this. At the very least our offense will be fun. He is very strong X's & O's and coaches some fun offense....

[quote]The SEC has been a football conference with a few good BBall teams since forever. You can bull shite some of the dudes on here, but I’m old enough to have lived it sir/m’am I don’t know the answer, but how many years has the SEC gotten 8 teams in? Can’t imagine it’s too many.[/quote] T...
That was brutal. Cut out a lot of the suspense and the fake live audience was awful....
[quote]I can respect it being the players' decision but, man, this should not be how Yante Maten ends his career at UGA. Really, really sad [/quote] Completely agree. Really surprised by this and kind of disappointed....

re: Georgia Expected To Fire Mark Fox

Posted by TigerinUGA on 3/10/18 at 12:36 pm
[quote]It's a mistake to fire him. Who are you going to get that is better? [/quote] We have zero tournament wins in 9 years. Only major program since the tourney expanded to at least 64 to be at a school over 8 years without a tourney win. You can't keep him. At worst our next hire is a failure...

I think it's Tom Crean. Other 2 I think in consideration are Steve Prohm from Iowa State and Earl Grant from College of Charleston. ...
Tomorrow will be a true road game but Mizzou outside of 2 players don't shoot it all that well. They will throw a lot of size and athleticism at Maten. His worst game of the year was in Columbia January 10th. If our guards play well we can beat them. Would love to get a shot at Kentucky Friday after...
Will be interesting to see what Duke does when the time comes. Very likely they keep the job within the Duke family. Quite a few former Duke players/coaches out there....
No chance UGA makes a run at a coach with any NCAA baggage, especially at this time. Sampson has a ton of it. Won't happen....
Down 9 doesn't seem to bother Fox. Either he knows he is getting fired regardless next week or he literally just doesn't care. This is sad....
