White will be working with a largely new cast of characters this season, even to Georgia fans. The Bulldogs brought in six players from the transfer portal plus one from high school. Mardrez McBride (North Texas), Frank Anselem (Syracus), Justin Hill (Longwood), Matthew-Alexander Moncrieffe (Oklahoma State) and Jusaun Holt (Alabama) all played for teams that appeared in the NCAA Tournament either in 2021 or 2022 while Terry Roberts (Bradley) helped Florida SouthWestern to a No. 1 junior college ranking during the 2020 season.
While there are several new faces, the Bulldogs do bring back super-seniors Braelen Bridges and Jailyn Ingram as well as senior Jaxon Etter and juniors Jabri Abdur-Rahim and Kario Oquendo. With Oquendo, Bridges and Ingram all back in the mix, Georgia returns its top three in points and rebounds per game while Bridges also finished top three in total assists.
During his time at Florida, White led the Gators to four consecutive NCAA Tournaments from 2017 to 2021. The Gators also made the postseason in the other two seasons. Dating back to his time at Louisiana Tech, White’s teams have made nine straight appearances in the postseason.
