It could always be worse
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Georgia Tech fans discouraged about an 11-13 men’s basketball team on a three-game losing streak might find some satisfaction in this thought: Things could be worse.
Look, for an example, at Virginia.
The Cavaliers come to Alexander Memorial Coliseum for Thursday night’s game with a 2-9 ACC record, 2 1/2 games worse than Tech’s 4-6.
They haven’t made it past the first weekend of the NCAA tournament since 1995.
They’ve made it to the tournament just once since 2001.
They were picked fifth this season; they’re 12th.
They lost to Tech.
They signed Sylvan Landesberg, but the Jackets got Iman Shumpert.
Feel better yet? Nope? Well, I tried.
