I think he was assured a real chance at the Alabama job in a few years.
Would you be OK with that. I would think We would go the experienced HC route.

Send him to Columbia next year.

Muschamp proved he can coach. We all assume Smart can as well.
Worked really well with Dooley.

Dooley was never a coordinator under Saban. His responsibility was not as broad as Kirby's is. Also, put that ish on Tennessee. Dooley had a multi-year HC record they could examine.

I'm thinking Kirby needs to be DC somewhere else first for a few years and get out from Saban's shadow. Then he can head back to Bama or anywhere else, if he's successful elsewhere, and be a head coach and ditch the Saban Stigma.

fricking Dooley was a Special Teams Coach and Recruiting Coordinator. He wasn't an OC or DC.

Kirby Smart will be next Bama coach unless he leaves or doesn't want the job.

Please let this happen.

I think next year could be his year to move. This year?
Auburn - dumpster fire run by the fambuleh, no
UT or Arky - Good opportunity, but not for a 1st time head coach IMO. Need some seasoning before tackling that one.
Kentucky - No suicide wish
South Florida - This has possibilities. Smart could recruit well enough to have the talent to win the big east in short order. Good place to develop.
Any of the rest - please. Although Wisconsin would be interesting now that it's opened up.
Next year Missouri could be open, which would be a good spot for him to land. Nebraska might be in the mood to give Bo the boot if they can't get some semblance of a defense.

I could see him at UGA or South Carolina in the next 2-3 years..

He could go to USC and still come back to bama if he is successful enough. That would be the perfect scenario.

Everyone is on board

I just don't see him going too far from the state of Georgia. That's his bread & butter when it comes to HS connections and recruiting. I think if Spurrier leaves next year, Kirby will probably try to land that job. GaTech could be open if/when they decide the Paul Johnson project just isn't going to cut it these days in a BCS conference. His buyout will be low and they can offer up enough $$ to make Kirby interested (I think Johnson makes close to $2.5 million per right now).

SMART 2 UGA

He becomes Bama's head coach when Saban bolts for the Browns

Plus, are any of those schools really going to take a chance on a guy that hasn't been a head coach first?

Southern Miss IMO

Negative. He cldve had that last year if he wanted. He'll take a healthy raise and stay at Bama.

Assuming Strong to UT, Louisville would be his best option. Good pay, and even John L Williams won there.

Saban doesn't have the personality or temperament to be an AD. He would want to meddle in everything.
