Smart almost won one in his second year as HC anywhere


It’s almost like he got a front row seat on how to HC from the best to ever do it, then went to one of the easiest programs to succeed at

Dude did a great job biding his time and pouncing on a good situation. Does make me wonder if he could do the same coming into a place in bad shape though

Continue the story..

He then proceeded to win more games in a row than anyone else ever had in the SEC, rattle off 3 8-0 SEC seasons in a row (something never done before), and win back to back NCs with possibility of a third.

Isn't that what Saban did by coaching with Bill Bellecick then he went to Alabama?

Wait. Are we talking about Kirby or Saban? Which bad program did Saban succeed at...because I don't see one.

He coached at Michigan State and went 34-24-1.
