The Junkyard

Hope he checks out the status of John Jenkins, Travis Leslie and Trey Thompkins..
As good as he is, he needs to work on ball handling and creating his shot off the dribble.
Another year and he's probably a lottery pick..
Wish him the best, whatever decision he reaches.

Jenkins gets a ton of minutes for an NBA playoff team and is a multi millionaire. I ask you again....find something wrong with that.

He could also come back and have a Lattimore injury....or better yet, a Shawn Livingston....when he is guaranteed to be a millionaire now. He would be foolish to come back to play for this coach. He's not going to get better playing for Mark Fox.

This statement means that you, and others like you who say it, don't understand AAU and AAU kids....You have to play the game. RELATIONSHIPS, RELATIONSHIPS, RELATIONSHIPS, CONNECTIONS, AND RELATIONSHIPS.

No need to rehash the Korey McCray story....we all know how bad Fox butchered it....but the reality is, hire the right guy, you get the right kids, and that is INDEPENDENT of fan and admin support.

And guess what, get the right kids, and win, and the fans will be there. Not the other way around.

And don't give me the lack of Admin support....its crap. $42 million on bball facilities...and Fox makes Top 25 coach money. Where is this lack of support? Please elaborate on that nonsense.

P.S. KCPs improvement has nothing to do with Mark Fox.....that boring, anemic offense didn't make him a better player unless by that you mean it handcuffed him so bad that he had to learn how to score when everybody on the floor knew the other four players had no prayer to get their own shot and the offense never got an open guy an easy shot.

Exactly.....Fox has had four years....and ETERNITY in basketball. He has 3 of 4 years with a sub .500 record, and if KCP leaves, its going to be 4 of 5.

At any other school....you don't get that 5th year.....here I guess you get a pat on the back. A get em next year.

Mark Fox is stubborn and it will never change, therefore he will never win. And if it is true that the AD asked him to replace some of his assistants and he said no, then he is more ignorant than I might have first perhapsed.

This I agree with 110%. Our AD is quickly becoming a joke - at Georgia we don't just reward mediocrity - we reward losing. From the admin on down, Athens is a dysfunctional place where excellence is not even on the to-do list.

Dbd, great posts sir...plus one on all. I agree that KCP could greatly increase his stock by coming back....honestly, he could repeat as SEC POY and dive into the lottery......I just don't know if he sees the risk reward ratio like we do. Most of these guys don't......but I don't know him personally so I don't know who is in his ear.

And I think we agree that by any real basketball school standards, Fox doesn't deserve another year.......I'm guessing the fact that he s safe tells you our admins mentality when it comes to bball.
