How different do you think Georgia would be right now if they had hired Dabo Swinney instead of Kirby Smart?

Would anyone stop Dabo? Kirby is as bad of a hire as you could have possibly had because he has the illusion of being an elite coach while clearly not being in the same category as actual elite coaches.


Dabo went 7-7, 9-5, and 6-7 in his first three years and didn't win an ACC title until year 4. I bet at the time you probably thought Dabo was a bad hire as well. I know that it is a wild concept, but people get better at what they do the longer they do it.

Kirby Smart took over the 6th most talented team in the country and went 8 - 5. That's the difference.

Clemson is/was a hard place to be an elite coach, significantly harder than Georgia. Again, if Kirby took Clemson and Dabo took Georgia, Georgia may never lose a game because he is a good x's and o's coach.

Almost anyone can do what Kirby has done -- take a very talented team with abundant resources and come up short.

Like Mark Richt.
