There’s no better college job for Kirby to take, and there’s no better coach for UGA to get. Therefore, the marriage lasts. That’s all there is to it.


Yeah. Athens and UGA have nothing to do with the last 4 prior head coaches all living there.
Muschamp (who really could have taken any job) choosing to work at UGA.
Bobo (who really could have taken any analyst job) choosing to work at UGA.
Brian McClendon, Todd Hartley, and Kirby Smart all coaching at their Alma mater.

You are correct.
UGA hired Kirby because we didn't want him coaching against us at South Carolina.
But there is an attraction to coaching in Athens.
It's different.

Bahahaha! Yeah, it’s called coaching the best talent in CFB and making a top end salary doing it.

Delusional.
