The 2023-24 season was another unkind one for the Georgia Bulldogs. They won 20 games, but reaching that benchmark required 37 games and an extended trip to the NIT. It was also the best season in Athens since 2018 if you’re gauging success by KenPom.com ratings. But that’s how things have been going for Georgia basketball fans since Mark Fox was fired after that 2018 season.
Tom Crean failed to get things going, and Mike White has had two unremarkable seasons. Even under Mark Fox, the Bulldogs have only had one top-60 finish in KenPom over the past nine years.
