There is a part of me that thinks that Kirby is an exceptional recruiter but just not a great Head Coach.

I think many are coming to the same conclusion. Kirby was DC under Saban for 8 years during the time when Alabama's offense was pretty vanilla and relied on the defense to stifle their opponents. This worked pretty well until offenses evolved to the point today where the best offenses are routinely overpowering the best defenses.
Hopefully the next time we recruit a Justine Fields, Kirby will have the presence of mind to let the OC build the offense around a star QB because that is a significant part of what is missing in his incomplete teams.
