Anyone wanna hire Chris Mack?

We just lost to Auburn, a team who is 1-8 in their last 9 games.

Extending CMF is just ridiculous. Bring in Xavier coach!

If Fox is kept after this season, the message is, we just don't give a damn about basketball.
This program is at an absolute dead end as long as he is HC.

I'd go all in for Archie Miller, Dayton's HC.
He is Sean Miller's younger brother, he's just 37.
I think he has huge upside.

I haven't actually seen his upside, but he does have big feet.
 
I think the strong feeling I am getting is that Fox is done. I could be wrong. It's just starting to remind of when Jirsa was here. A friend of mine mentioned to me that we should bring Tubby back. I don't think that is a bad idea at all. He's at Texas Tech which is not a powerhouse, and people loved Tubby in Athens.

I've seen Tubby at TTU...totally different coach now. He was fiery in the 1990s, it looks like the fire's out now and he's coasting toward retirement.

I'd like to see if we could get Gregg Marshall from Wichita State.

We nead a recruiter slash coach like a fun and gun pressure d.
 
Well, we just lost to St. Mary's and finished a lackluster 20-14 AGAIN, just like in 2014. I'm ready for the Fox experiment to be over. This is a nightmare.
 
The problem is not coaching. The problem is recruiting. Fox hasn't been able to get it done recruiting because UGA has no history or tradition is basketball that draws recruits. It doesn't matter who you get, if recruiting doesn't improve, great coaching won't change much. UGA has not been able to keep any of the top 20 players in the state with the incredibly rare exception. Tubby Smith and Jim Harrick, two former great coaches, didn't really do much better than Fox if you look at it objectively, not to mention Smith used UGA as a stepping stone and Harrick embarrassed us with the NCAA mess. That's why Dooley wanted nothing to do with him, and Adams insisted.

Harrick and Felton combined set us back years and years on recruiting. Fox MAY be turning a corner? Hard to say but I'd give it one more year. He had about 5 to 7 to fix things with HS coaches.
