@FootballTimeMag Sources close to the situation tell us Auburn is working on an agreement with Kirby Smart...footballscoop.com/the-scoop

Sorry I couldn't find a Auburn thread or Kirby thread to post this info....

Good. I'd much rather have San Jose St's coach.

Thank God.

I hope this is true. Let someone else take a whack at another Saban coach. We've had our fill at UT. They will find out soon enough Nick runs that D.

Wouldn't it just be UT's luck if Smart ends up being a homerun hire for Auburn. We're just not in a position to take another gamble with a Sabanite.

I'd like to see Smart run a defense outside of Saban before I took him on. Muschamp got away from him and had great defenses at Auburn and Texas now UF, so he clearly picked some things up along the way and/or developed his own identity. But with Smart never leaving Saban's side you have to question is ability.
