Coach Mark Fox struggles to answer post game questions, after losing his voice.


The Georgia Bulldogs put on a fine effort in their win against Texas A&M on Wednesday night, 62-53.  It was also their coach Mark Fox who put together a tremendous effort after the game, while fulfilling his post game interview obligations with the media.

In the video shown below, Fox struggles to put words together as his voice is noticeably horse.  However Fox fights through his pitchy tone to string together enough words for a response. 

“We just defended and made enough baskets to get a lead and made our free throws,” Fox said. He wrapped up the following question saying, “We played a good team so we feel good about how we played.”

Georgia players noticed their coaches condition during the interview and can be seen smiling in the background of the video around the :23 second mark.  Coach Fox did all he could to combat his lack of voice as he takes a sip out of a Gatorade cup before he goes to answer the follow up question. 

The poor interviewer had to be terrible forcing him to answer questions but there was a job to be done and TV time to fill.
