If this is true and they are getting rid of Mark Richt to bring in an unproven coordinator who has been coaching under Nick Saban, good luck with that.

Not a big surprise. He was the front runner from the get go.

Also seeing rumors that Jeremy Pruitt is a candidate for the South Carolina job, if that's true, I'm wondering who our new DC will be. Possibly Muschamp?

Mark Richt was an unproven at head coach that worked under a coaching legend as well. Smart might flame out, who knows, but I like the hire, and I like that they made it now.

Get his ass on a plane to Seattle ASAP.

No. Hopefully he'll coach Alabama all the way through and screw Georgia out of a lot of recruits. :D

He'll coach this weekend for sure, I'm guessing, but hopefully that will be Smart's last game at Bama.

That kid was an ass in high school from what I remember, his dad's name was all that kept him from getting thrown out of games sometimes.

While no official reports have surfaced, apparently he and Pruitt haven't been getting along very well.

I wish him success obviously, but I'd be lying if I thought this was a good hire for Georgia.

That said, the reward could be pretty good for Georgia because he probably knows the Saban defense etc better than anyone.

I remember thinking the same thing with Will Muschamp is all I am saying. Not that I think Smart will suck, I am just not sure how much on field results are actually his work and not Saban's.

I just hope it doesn't fuck Kirby up.

The biggest thing I'm worried about is Alabama may lose it's S&C coach to Georgia as well because he and Kirby are very good/family friends. So he probably gone too.

That's the one thing that I'm worried about. Georgia is already a good defensive team. With a defensive coach as good as Smart is, who knows how awesome that defense can be?

Maybe Pruitt? I have a feeling Muschamp though since he has proven to be a very useful puppet in the past.

Im thinking Pruitt,Looks like Muschamp will be going to Georgia with Smart. We Will probably lose Scott Cochran too which will suck.

Maybe so, but as long as Alabama has Saban, the D will be in great shape. All the pawns can shake and shift however they want, but that is all they are, pawns.
