Fans react: Thad Matta will not take Georgia basketball job
Former Ohio State basketball coach Thad Matta will not take the Georgia basketball position, according to reports.
Fans on Twitter sounded off on Matta’s decision and highlighted other potential hires.
Crean would not be the HR hire that Hurley, Matta, Miller or even Mussleman would be. In fact I’d have Grant higher on my list. But Crean would be on my list

Matta turns us down. Crean? Go a mid major route like Earl Grant at College of Charleston?

Sounds like Matta was just fulfilling his “contractual obligations.” Unreal.

Now that we have shown Matta was our #1 choice it doesn’t look good for us to say “hey man, do you wanna be our #2 choice and coach our 🏀team?”

Thad Matta turns down @UGA, hey Bulldogs go get Steve Forbes @ ETSU or Wes Miller @ UNCG, both recruit our area very well and are solid coaches. Hunter should stay put @ my Alma mater #justsaying
