Georgia basketball coach Tom Crean can’t wait to start working with the Georgia basketball team and Georgia fans.

The University announced Thursday night the former Indiana and Marquette coach would replace Mark Fox as the Bulldogs’ basketball coach.

In a video released by Georgia Athletics Friday, Crean let out a “Go Dawgs” and said he was all in on the University of Georgia.

“I am humbled to have been chosen to lead this men’s basketball program at The University of Georgia,” Crean said. “Make no mistake about this: This is a basketball program inside a great University that can compete for championships.”
