Why wouldn't he be here to finish the season?

If he leaves before the season is over, I'll be the first to say - frick you Kirby.

But I seriously don't think that's going to happen and can't see him as being that type of coach/person.

Kirby Smart to UGA

quote:

Scott Cochran, Alabama's director of strength and conditioning, is expected to join Smart in Athens, according to a source. Cochran has been at Alabama since 2007 and has been an integral part of Saban's staff.


quote:

Smart is not expected to officially accept the position until after Alabama plays Florida in the SEC Championship this Saturday at the Georgia Dome. Smart, 39, is a former Georgia football player and has long been interested in coaching the Bulldogs. He'll replace Mark Richt who spent 15 seasons at Georgia before being dismissed on Sunday.

It is not yet known if Smart would continue coaching at Alabama if the Crimson Tide wins Saturday and makes the College Football Playoff. There's a precedent for doing it as former Alabama offensive coordinator Jim McElwain coached Alabama in the 2012 national championship after accepting the Colorado State job. Saban lauded McElwain's decision and said it "spoke to his character and his professionalism."
