FYI via several sources (including those in Tuscaloosa), UK is visting with Kirby Smart today.

I can picture the scene. The Kentucky contingent meets with him and leaves. He walks into Saban's office to discuss.
Saban tells him, "no hurry, there will be other and better offers". Smart walks out and never talks to UK again.

On a serious note, I'm really not sure how I feel about him. Alabama is obviously one of the best defensive teams in the nation since he's been there, but I'm not sure if most of that credit really should go to Saban.
I kind of think all Saban has to do is walk into the house of a 5 star recruit and flash his rings, and the recruiting war is over.
So, Smart is working with far superior talent than we have here. Can he coach up? Is he HC material? I really don't know....
