Who said UGA thinks its getting Saban 2.0? There's a lot of things we hoped he learned learning from the best for such a long time. He has came in, said all the right things, kept a recruiting class intact and even added more talent and is building a similar class for 2017.

I think its unfair to say that he won't be Saban because I don't think anyone would expect him to be. Nick Saban is a once in a lifetime-type coach.

We may not win a national title under Smart. But we weren't doing it before anyway. Might as well snag the guy who has been groomed by the best for a long time.

Kirby is going to do fine at UGA because even Ray Goff won 10 games at UGA. But it remains to be seen whether or not the duplicate Saban plan will work. One thing Saban has that perhaps Kirby doesn't it seems is an administration and a booster club network that is complicit in his desire to win at all costs.

The state of Alabama also has a great majority who define themselves by how well Alabama does in football, ergo they will do anything and everything necessary to help the cause. Business leaders, judges, school administrators, coaches, car dealers, you name it. I've lived in Georgia for almost 30 years and I haven't seen that same ethos over here.
