Great idea. Let's wait until Smart becomes a HEAD COACH to decide whether he is a good defensive coordinator.

Would you prefer that I edit my post to say "when Smart stops living in the shadow of Saban's success"?

The point is that good or bad, Ellis Johnson has done it on his own for decades whereas Kirby won't even take the risk of being DC at top programs like UGA.

He's starting to look like someone who's afraid of falling flat on his face

What has Ellis Johnson done on his own for decades? Other than go 0-12 at Southern Miss....other than a brief stop at the Citadel he has been a career assistant. He was terrible at Bama under Dubose.

Kirby has the best situation of any coordinator out there.......why should he rush into to 2nd rate program?
