Re: Georgia Football Podcast: UGA reportedly sets sights on intriguing coaching hire
While I was hoping Jarvis would get a shot, I like this hire. Ties to the CSRA along and the Atl recruiting grounds along with a solid mid level resume, sounds like the type of asst coach who will stick around for a while if he has success, welcome to the G CLK!

Re: Mike White contract extension includes raise to $3.91 million, annual increase
I notice that you never address the obvious questions I've stated. Who would do significantly better with this team? We've already ruled out Hurley, Pitino and Calipari. You are only addressing half the problem w/o addressing the elephant in the room. But your failure to acknowledge the talent discrepancies only accentuates your lack of objectivity.
Chicken or egg? Coach or talent. 27 and 45. 30 years of underachievement, over multiple eras, is impossible to pin on 1 guy. Sorry.
"Over the last 30 years (approximately 1995–2025), at least 10-12 Georgia Bulldogs basketball players have made it to the NBA", AI. Take away AEdwards and Claxton (both played for Crean) and there is no one of significance. Over 30 years.
Are you really going to compare finding Tubby in1996 to the current situation? Complete apples and oranges. NIL has changed everything. If it was so easy why hasn't UGA done it since? UGA has tried 7 times since then. Each time since then has been the same results. 7 coaching failures since TSmith. Yet very little change in philosophy and financial commitment. That's on the school. TSmith was so enamored with the UGA program he stayed 2 seasons.
FYI TSmith winning % after leaving KY (and all its talent) is 52% same as Mike White's career winning %. Jimmy's and Joe's or so Kirby says.
"Hugh Durham’s roster leftovers and take them to consecutive NCAAs" And White took Donovan's leftovers and was CoY in the SEC.
I get it. You don't think White is the guy to get the UGA program to the next level. It looks like things will stay the same as they have been for the last 30 years unless the school steps up and supports the basketball program similarly to the football program. That's what it takes to win in this era. In my expert opinion it is not rocket science. White is the coach for the foreseeable future. The answer has always been, "get better players" or embrace the status quo.

Re: Kemon Spell: The 5-star has his own top targets list for Georgia football
In other Georgia athletics news…
Former Diamond Dawg Kyle Farmer is trying to make the Braves’ roster in spring training. The Lady Dawgs notched a huge win in knocking off the #5 ranked commodores. The men’s basketball team continues to tank in SEC play.
Is Jeff Sentell the only one working now? There are plenty of Georgia athletics news out there for former, current and future Dawgs. They just need to start reporting the stories.

Re: Georgia Football Podcast: UGA reportedly sets sights on intriguing coaching hire
I follow college football closely—I follow it real close—I've never heard of this guy (of course that doesn't mean squat—he may be "all that" and more)—especially if Kaleel Poteet says so!
