Our only real weakness in trying to build a top basketball program..

Great recruiting area - check
Plenty of capital - check
Great town - check
Great school environment - check
Great fan base.....not so much.

I believe it's the single biggest question a top coach will have when evaluating his potential to win at UGA.

kirby was able to check that last box, but basketball has never been a main attraction in Athens.

Have to convince the admin folks who "tolerate" the large influx of non alum... same folks who would prefer a reputation that espouses more higher edu and less rabid college fanbases of winning teams who's identity is mostly defined by sports. There was a reason mark r was getting destroyed in the facilities arms race...it sure wasn't cause fb wasn't making the $....If you can show the ROI like kirby has done...then those folks see $ turning into Rhodes schollys....its risk vs reward ...is the university willing to do what it takes to facilitate winning in bball.....I realize thats a relative statement...but the "tolerators" tend to look the other way when kirbys wins are more than paying for the investment and injecting tons of capital into the local community and UGA.

Aren't those the same administration folks who ''tolerate'' 93,000 hooting yokels invading Sanford every home game ?
