I assume McGarity believes that about every coach he hires. I won’t hold that against Kirby, though.

Kirby Smart has officially been named UGA's coach – at least according to what appears to be a premature post on Georgia's web site.

Apparently https://t.co/sRj5rWdQLC scooped the athletic board on Kirby Smart. Board still in executive session.

Alright, CKS, lets hear about that staff please.

He’s got a big job ahead of him beyond just recruiting and Xs and Os. I hope he doesn’t get frustrated.

Very true. Here’s to the Kirby Way being what we need.

(Looking good, Winthorpe). Feeling good (, Billy Ray).
I’m skeptical by nature, but am optimistic about the hire. With Smart, we should get a very methodical approach to program-building and coaching. It may not lead to an SEC title every year (or even every other year), but it should result in a tougher and more focused team. Here’s hoping that – at the least – the roster management problems and annual gakkings are now a thing of the past.

Bluto,
Thank you for keeping this forum about it’s intended purpose. You could have gone for the easy click bait like the AJC(basically turning Dawgnation into Cane nation). I really appreciate the way you manage your blog and I’m proud to be a part of it. You’re a DGD and never get much credit for it. Thank you.

If Pruitt is a problem, I hope Kirby will move on. There are many battles to fight, games to win, recruits to sign…Kirby knows a good DC when he sees one, it that’s Pruitt and he brings no extra baggage with him then fine. Smart does not need anything or anyone to distract him, he’s got a heaping plate to deal with.
GATA Kirby Smart.

I hope that this works out to be a great hire for the University and the football program. My greatest hope is that Smart has learned that detail is too small and no stone goes unturned. Yes, he will make mistakes along the way that will draw the fury of Dawg Nation, but hopefully he will build upon the foundation laid by those who have come before him. GATA CKS! Hunker Down You Hairy Dawgs!
