re: Comparing Saban and Kirby's first 7 years. From Twitter....

Not much, like your post about teams being unequal when the respective coaches showed up.

Suggesting the starting points for such stats don't matter is pants on head stupid. It's what every fricking coach in the history of college football has been judged on.

What did you take over vs what did you do with it.

I was just pointing out that Kirby offset his lack of coaching experience with some decent players to start with and Saban offset his lack of players with his experience as a championship-winning coach.

Which has nothing to do with anything.

Kirby Smart literally stole everything he could from Alabama and then put Georgia logos on top of them.

You can’t ignore the experience (or lack thereof) of both men heading into their respective new jobs if you want to call into question other things like rosters.

If you are trying to compare coaches, then you are an idiot. Saban taught Kirby everything Kirby knows, Saban didn't teach Kirby everything Saban knows.

The only thing Kirby has accomplished was copying what Saban and Alabama were doing and applying it to Georgia. Which isn't a bad thing, we've seen tons of other schools hiring coaches trying to get the same thing and failed.

But give me a fricking break.

You know what stat it didn't mention? Head to head record.
