UGA AD/President Should Be Ashame For Not Caring About NCAA Tournamnet.

How many years has it been since we've been part of the NCAA tournament? The committee extended the number of schools and we still can't make it. And let's not talk about the Sweet 16.
The campus is 70 miles from Atlanta. What will it take for us to spend money on Coaches and Facilities for Basketball? I truly don't understand the lack of commitment. There are tons of "football" schools in the NCAA tournaments. This is just UNACCEPTABLE. It's really sad that many Dawg fans (alumni, students, fans) are okay with not making the tournament...something is terribly wrong.

So list your suggestions on changes that should be made.
I understand that football reigns supreme, but more money should be poured into the following:
1) Hiring a bonafide coach- when one becomes available (take risks just like we did w/Kirby).
2) Upgrade Stegeman Coliseum
Granted, the football facilities were not bad when Kirby arrived, but Stegeman obviously needs some updates. Not having a competent coach and not recruiting players is inexcusable; however, worse is not competing for a spot in the NCAA tournament year after year after year after year.
To be honest, I'm not the biggest CKS fan, but his passion for the university and the facilities are second to none. He understands what it takes to recruit.
We have not made the Sweet 16 since 1983!!!! We have not been invited to the NCAA tourney since 2015/8 years. Have not made it past the first round since 2002/ or 21 years. Where is the OUTRAGE?!?!
