Respect

As you know, Georgia basketball gets no respect.

Hard to explain, then, the Dawgs' inclusion in Ahtlon Sports' list of "12 contenders for programs on the rise" this season:

For the second consecutive season, Georgia was the team no bubble team in the SEC wanted to play. The Bulldogs went 12-7 in the league, but they lacked the non-conference resume to be a legitimate NCAA contender. Maybe that changes this season. After getting hit with untimely early entries to the NBA Draft, Mark Fox has his top five scorers returning.

First, if you're going to count our SEC tournament loss, count the win as well.  13-7 in conference is more accurate (see?  NO RESPECT).  Second, it is interesting that Georgia is on someone's national radar in May.  Third, let's forget this article was ever written...because Georgia gets no respect, I tell ya.
