I think that he would say yes so fast that his head would spin.

Yup. And he'd do great there IMO. And even if he said no, they have options. By the time Saban retires they'll know how Kirby can run a similar program. Pruitt may have HC experience by then. Not to mention other guys in Saban's tree like Jimbo, Kiffin, and Muschamp.

They have options. Meanwhile at Auburn, our network has landed us a 5-19 Iowa State coach and a guy that had 1 year of college HC experience at a sun belt school, and hadn't even been at the college level for a decade at the time of his hire.
