Well this came out of literally nowhere.
Adam Wexler, a 2007 graduate of Georgia and the founder of PrizePicks, is committing $10 million to the Bulldog men’s basketball program. The money will be used for “personnel and operating expenses within the Georgia men’s basketball program, with a portion going toward the Athletic Director Excellence Fund”, according to a release from Georgia.
The commitment is the largest philanthropic commitment in UGA Athletic Association history.
“The University of Georgia has always meant a tremendous amount to me and my family,” Wexler said in a statement released by Georgia. “Watching my father’s lifelong connection to this university shaped my appreciation for what Georgia represents: opportunity, culture, and excellence. There has never been a more interesting time in the history of collegiate athletics for donors to make a difference, and I’d love for this to be the start of something much bigger for the Bulldog community.”
Wexler’s father, Alan Wexler, was a two-sport athlete at Georgia, playing on the football team alongside Fran Tarkenton. The senior Wexler also spent time as the editor-in-chief of the school newspaper, The Red & Black.
Say, let’s use that money to attract some of those pros back from the NBA to Athens. Here’s one we can go for:

I mean, if LSU and Alabama can do it, why can’t we? We just need a local judge’s blessing and we’re good to go.
Can they use the money for a buyout?

GOOD! Let’s (finally) get serious about men’s basketball. Nothing would please me more, UGA-wise. I love that the conference has gotten to be top tier, assuming we try to rise up along with Fla/UK/Ark/Bama/AU, etc.
