Georgia basketball hires Stephen F. Austin assistant coach

On Thursday, Georgia basketball announced the addition of Wade Mason to Tom Crean’s coaching staff in Athens.

Mason is set to replace Chad Dollars as an assistant coach following Dollars’ departure for Cincinnati earlier this offseason.

Mason has spent the last five seasons as an assistant at Stephen F. Austin and helped the Lumberjacks to win the Southland Conference Tournament in 2018. This past season, they went 16-5.

Mason also held the position of graduate assistant at Oklahoma (2011-12) and Oral Roberts (2012-16).

Crean on Mason:

“I’ve followed Wade Mason for some time, and he comes highly recommended from people I’ve worked with and respect,” Crean added.
