Josh Brooks, Athletics Director for UGA, has a pretty easy gig right now. Football is king, and is also King. So fundraising should be relatively easy, and most everyone around the athletics department is happy. Football just won a title, and many other sports are also enjoying success, albeit maybe not national title success.
But things are good. Except for in men’s basketball. That sport is, as it seems to have always been in Athens, struggling. This gives Brooks’ a unique opportunity. No one really cares if things are bad, or somehow get worse, in the program, so long as football is winning.
