You all can call it dumb all you want but they met with Smart yesterday. Just like they've contacted other coaches today.
If you don't think staffs talk to coaches before the season is over I don't know what to tell you. How else would hires happen so quickly in the post-season and sometimes even before bowl games?
The funny thing is I didn't even hear it from a Kentucky person. It came from someone with Alabama ties.

Belle,
I can believe UK officials might have talked to Smart's agent type person to guage interest, but to think that they went to the Alabama football offices and met with him. No way. Smart would not do that.
I would think most of these conversations are with agents/lawyers, not people like Smart himself. That is how these things happen quickly after a season is over. Everything is worked out in advance, then you have a meeting face to face after the season is over and a contract is signed.
I'm sure Nick Saban wants him focused on A&M, not a future job.
