UPDATE 2: The AJC has spoken to Anderson’s agent and he says that Anderson has not been offered the job.

“Georgia hasn’t offered him the job,” Sexton said. “I wish they had. They haven’t said the job is his.”

UPDATE: @ajcsportseditor has tweeted:

ESPN is wrong: Anderson has not been offered the UGA job, his agent says. Details coming on ajc.com/sports.

If it’s true I hope this isn’t hurting our chances.

ESPN is now reporting that Georgia has extended an official offer to current Missouri Tiger basketball coach Mike Anderson.

Georgia officials have offered the 49-year-old Anderson a multiyear contract that would pay him more than $2 million per season, according to sources. He would replace Dennis Felton, who was fired Jan. 29 after going 84-91 record in six seasons at Georgia.

Now, the ball is in Anderson’s court.

Anderson, who led the Tigers to a school-record 31 victories and the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament this season, spoke to Georgia athletics director Damon Evans on Monday, according to multiple sources, and is back home pondering his future.
