Sounds like Gus was the man all along.

I heard he got interviewed but didn't get offered?

Oh well. I think I am going to get absolutely shitfaced tomorrow night, take off Thursday, and pretend Pat Dye is still our coach or something. Hell, even Tubs.
Would do it tonight, but I'm afraid I might go to far and not survive.

Does it matter? He still interviewed with your hated rival, and never came out and said he was choosing to stay at Bama. Did I mention he interviewed with your hated rival? The DC of your team getting ready to play in the biggest game spent the last couple days talking to us?

Did I mention Kirby turned down $2.3 million/yr to coach AU because he ultimately decided it wasn't worth the money?

When I found out Patterson and Petrino wouldn't happen? I was praying hard for Kirby Smart over Gus Malzahn.

You got a link to that? Because I can provide you with plenty saying he was interested in the school that occupies the hollow area between your ears.

Someone on BOL who claims to know Kirby's family pretty well said that they couldn't come to terms for agreement.
Kirby wanted complete control and the ability to build his own staff from the ground up.
Auburn folks asked that he keep a couple of the assistants since they had multi-year deals or something like that.
He also said that Kirby wanted more money than what was offered.
