Monday love

If you need a little Monday pick-me-up, go ahead and listen to the latest Seth and Gentry Show, where they (very apologetically) lead with basketball and proceed to gush over this year's team.

They start with a discussion that I've seen played out in the message boards as well:  who is Georgia's MVP?  It's a question that doesn't really interest me, to be honest, but if you demanded an answer, I'd say Marcus Thornton.  With that said, if Georgia needs 1 big shot, J.J. Frazier is absolutely my guy.

Moving on, Gentry, especially, seems to think Georgia has reached the point where they'd have to "play their way out" of the tournament.  I'm not there yet, but it is refreshing to be having that discussion instead of talking about what has to go right for the Dawgs to fight their way into the dance.

They also discuss what is going to be a huge week for the basketball team.  If Georgia can manage to win at home against Vanderbilt (no small feat) and on the road against South Carolina, there's a good chance they'll enter Rupp Arena ranked a week from Tuesday.  One game and a time, for sure, but that would certainly be fun...

To repeat:  a week before signing day, Georgia's beat writer has been forced to lead with basketball.  Fantastic.
