Except Smart got to benefit from the experience Saban gained by coaching and recruiting for him up until the second he became a head coach
The benefit of:
4 DC years under bill b + 5 HC years at MSU + 5 HC years at LSU + 2 NFL HC years
>>>>>
8 DC years under saban.
By a lot.

Yay, one 10 win season in 4 years. Followed it up by going 6-7 and just 2-6 in the conference.
2006 was not far from 10 wins, just like uga 2015 wasn’t far from 6 wins. Both schools had top 10 seasons followed by a season bad enough to fire the coach. They are MUCH closer than you are willing to admit.

Due to jumping between college and NFL, and no college version of himself for Nick to just photo-copy his college approach from, I disagree
Saban had to figure out how to succeed at the college level with trial and error. Kirby got to just watch what Saban did and copy/paste it at a program in better shape than what Saban received at Bama

What’s your point here. 6+4 = 10?

Clemson has 4 less wins than UGA…I guess they’re not that far from UGA’s success as well lol
