I totally understand that muschamp is a good or great defensive mind.
Promise everyone that posts or reads here, if muschamp comes with Kirby Smart, I understand that also. Head coach has to be the leader, but think that most of us know the leader has to show leadership.
Jeremy Pruitt was in the box, topside on the phone with Kirby Smart on the sideline when both were together in Tuscaloosa.
My feelings are both were/are very good defensive coaches. One of my questions would be . . . . Who placed Pruitt in the Box for the games? Not hard to answer, Nick Saban.
When Pruitt left Alabama and signed on with FSU, pretty good indication that he had something that both Jimbo Fisher and Nick Saban knew he had. He did not get the defensive coordinator's job in Tallahassee because he was a "friend" of Jimbo Fisher. Fisher is like Saban, does things his way. Jimbo Fisher wanted Jeremy Pruitt to run the FSU defense. Did something right, National Champions. Offense alone did not win the NC.
Both Kirby Smart and Jeremy Pruitt are to me, "young men". Young men that are still carrying around a lot of testosterone. If there are differences between the two, have a piece of advice for both men. Will not be the last time in your lives that you will be faced with the same situation. Bet that.
Kirby Smart will "run" the football program in Athens. That is the way it should be. Does not mean that I have to approve of his selections. I not unlike some others "outside of the arena", was put in my place by the last head coach. I also "know" that Kirby Smart is the right "young man" for the position he is fixing to take and do wonders with.
Guess I am a bit anxious with the happenings the past couple of weeks, but one thing I am sure of . . . . nothing muschamp can do can to erase the way he acted in the Sunshine State. Take that back. muschamp get on your knees, apologize and promise to act civil. Any bets on that?
