Apples and oranges. How do you equate Gator fans hoping Bama's coaching staff goes away with a player getting hurt during a game? Do you think Bama sat around hoping that McCoy would get injured to make it easier for them to win? Doubt it.

kirby is the unofficial coach in waiting at alabama---he makes $1 mil plus and when saban leaves alabama after a few more BCS titles, kirby will cash in with a $4 million deal

Many of the Atlanta Radio and TV jocks have good connections most of the SEC teams.
Also many big time Bam supporters live in the Atlanta metro area and are on good terms with the Tuscaloosa and the Atlanta media outlets. One of those guys is Jason Cofar is a Bama Graf and is a producer for Atlanta 680 AM The Fan.

Ha. Smart is the Mickey Andrews of Alabama. Were he capable of being a HC, he'd have gone long ago. Ask WM how long you should wait for an older HC to step aside.

Saban and Smart seem to work well together, so that might not be the same kind of relationship he would have with any team in the League. The money is great but the shelf life is very short lived in most cases.
Quinn left us not because he disliked UF or college ball, but that he already had an outstanding relationship with Carroll and the Seahawks and Seattle in general. He was a pro guy all the way and Muschamp knew it was just a matter of time.
The NFL is big business, just ask Spurrier how his owners affected his stay with the Skins, and college ball is just more fun and fulfilling. Millionaire owners and players might be more difficult to deal with than college HC's and AD's.
But then again, maybe Jawga opens up and there you have it!

Beyond the delusional aspect of it, I don't see the harm in hoping Bama loses Smart. I don't have a problem with them getting weaker while we get stronger. After the last three embarrassments, I'd enjoy beating the snot out of them way more than eeking out a close win.
That said, Smart ain't going nowhere. Give it up. Bill Belichek will quit New England to coach the Jaguars before that happens.

I don't think Gator fans are scared they just want to see other Coaching Staffs have to deal with the turmoil of replacing a good coach with the uncertainty of a new one like we've had to deal with.

I agree with this entirely.

Yes they were. They were laughing at his BS "gotta spend more time with my family" so hard that they were crying.

I don't like it! I want the Eagles to hire Georgia's DC. That guy has breathed life into Richt's lagging program. I want him gone!

Saban / Alabama are at the top of their game---fla fans better hope they do something different or lose coaches---if not, they will be dominating the SEC and BCS for years. Saban may end up with 4-5 more titles before he gets through.

Because I like to see them knocked down a notch. I want to win. I don't give a damn about the cliche of beating a team at "their best."

Bama sure seems to get the type of schedules that UG gets. They have another easy year next year for being an SEC team. No way do I believe they would have won the NC this year if they had our schedule. I also do not see KS leaving until UG (which is not happening soon) or Saban leaves. Looks like Saban and Smart are blood brothers with a pact.

Huh? Their defense underperformed this year. They had a decent stretch towards the end of the season but got lit up by both Bama and Nebraska. Their offense (Richt's strength) was one of the better offenses in the country, save for their South Carolina meltdown (and us, damn 6 turnovers...).

Sounds like the Bobby Bowden to the ACC theory on winning football. Muschamp doesn't seem to approach the game scared, but maybe your approach is better.

Bobby Bowden ducked opponents. I don't want to run but I'd rather they become more beatable.

Agree w/ this. The longer Smart hangs around, not taking lesser head coaching offers, it seems this is the case. Saban is 60. Does he have the desire to go 5, 10 more years? I think this current stint at Bama is his longest tenure at any job (assistant or head coach). He was at LSU for what, 5 years?
So....I'd be surprised to see Smart take that job at Philly.

So you want them to fall apart before we play them rather than ducking them. Got it.

Yes, you got it. I don't want to see them get better. I generally don't cheer for our opponents.
