You haven’t been paying attention have you??
Shall we go back to January 2016 when Kirby thanked Saban by taking pictures of Bama’s recruiting board and showing it to recruits.

Yeah, I remember that. So what? Welcome to the big water. Everyone, including Saban understands how this shite works. It's a high stakes, cutthroat business where no one fricks around.

You know who took all that shite personal? The fans, not the guys at the top who are playing to win.

Kirby Smart is no more of a rat than Nick Saban was in his prime. How Kirby did things then and how he does them now, is how it's done.
