Title: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 01, 2015, 09:53:28 PM I posted this inside another thread, but decided to give it its own thread.
Quote D.J. Durkin, Michigan defensive coordinator In the event Smart leaves to become a head coach, the best candidate available outside the South might be Durkin. The Wolverines defense has been one of the best in America this season, ranking 11th in Football Outsiders’ defensive efficiency rating. Durkin also has ties to the SEC, serving as Florida’s defensive coordinator as recently as 2014. Most of the names on this list are quite famous, and it would require big bucks to secure them as the Crimson Tide’s next defensive coordinator. But Alabama won’t accept anything less. In eight years working with Saban’s defense, Smart has made himself one of the biggest names in his profession. If Smart truly is ready to cash in on that notoriety and become a head coach, it’s a sure bet that Saban knows only a big-name replacement will do. https://www.seccountry.com/sec-news/four-candidates-to-replace-dc-kirby-smart-should-he-leave-alabama Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: ricky023 on December 02, 2015, 11:42:48 AM Do you think Jim Harbaugh is going to let his DC leave for Alabama? This is crazy. I might like to see Chizik come here he has built in one year a good defense at UNC what could he do in one year with our recruits? RTR!
Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: hscoach on December 02, 2015, 12:12:48 PM The first guy that came to my mind was Tucker. He has DC experience and he has been with Saban a year and knows the expectations.

He has DC experience and he has been with Saban a year and knows the expectations. I thought of him first off also, Coach. I asked about Tucker on another forum, and their insider said that he first heard that Tucker was going back to the NFL, but had also heard he might be interested in the DC job. Looks like another wait & see scenario. Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: BillBrosky on December 02, 2015, 02:52:41 PM Might want to forget D.J. Durkin, sounds like he's Maryland bound.

Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 02, 2015, 03:08:44 PM How about these guys for DC:
Paul Rhoades-Former DC Pitt, Auburn & Tuberville Bo Davis-DL coach Alabama Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 02, 2015, 03:11:10 PM Interesting. Pruitt wanted to stay at UGA. Maybe he doesn't want to return to Bama.

Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: Chechem on December 03, 2015, 04:47:46 AM Pruitt would be an easy transition back to Bama.
But is he 'the man for the job'?? :popcorn2: Title: Re: Kirby Smart Possible Replacements Post by: 2Stater on December 03, 2015, 07:22:43 AM Pruitt doesn't need to come back to Bama. He has a big mouth and he is indeed, self serving. After throwing Richt and their OC under the bus after the UF game, I lost what little respect that I had for him.
