"We literally implemented everything Alabama did, from the weekly schedule with the coaches to the practice schedule to the weight room program to whatever," said Beamer, now South Carolina's head coach. "It was identical. He didn't have to say, 'This is what Alabama did.' You knew it. A lot of stuff we used even had the Alabama logo on it and was copy and pasted with the Georgia logo on it."

That's why we hired him, dumbass.


"Whatever Saban is doing in Bama to win NC's over and over, we want you to do that here"

Pretty simple. Did you think we hired him to reinvent the wheel on his own?

Given Alabama's success, I'd be pissed if Kirby didn't copy everything he learned from Lord Saban down to the font on his fricking stationary.

Seems like a pretty good idea to me. Our guy is doing the same thing.

I had to look it up, but he's been there since 2015 now. Don't think your idea worked.

Glad we did. Saban is the best in the business. I'm glad Kirby brought the Alabama way to Georgia.

I can’t believe that Kirby wanted to emulate the greatest CFB coach of all time after working for him. I’m shocked

This is a compliment to saban, and I am glad his process worked well. I bet Shane has done just about the same thing.

Is this really a revelation to you dumbfricks? Of course Kirby took what he learned from Saban and ran with it. It why UGA hired him. It’s obviously what works. You think beaner isn’t doing what he learned from Kirby and Lincoln? You dumb fricking bammer trailer trash never cease to amaze me.

How long was Saban a HC before he won his first Natty?

How is this funny? You find something that works and repeat it. That’s what successful people do.

Picturing Smart pasting an UGA logo over a Bama logo struck me as funny.

I think everyone is completely cool with this. The issue some have is his refusal to really be honest on any of this or even show an iota of gratitude. Beamer’s honesty here is refreshing. But back to Kirby, a man who doesn’t acknowledge where he came from and who helped him along the way isn’t much of a man at all.

I’d like to see a more player driven collaborative approach to the game. Harlequins pulled it off in the Gallagher premiership but I’m not sure these college kids are mature enough to pull it off

Copying Saban's process? Sure. To be expected.

Taking the actual documents with him, and photoshopping the UGA logo onto them? Weak, lazy, and potentially actionable. Everything the rumors have said he did.

Think about it as Kirby as the COO of a Fortune 500 company hired as CEO by one of its competitors. Take ideas and processes with him? Sure. Take actual documents and just photoshop a new logo on them? Lazy and actionable.
