No not at all. That solidifies even more that him moving to UGA would be more devastating to his career then anything. I will say this though, I do like Mark Richt, but if he continues to take the downfall, he will be ousted. Then, Kirby Smart would be in prime position to move from bamas DC to UGAs HC.
I could go along with that. His wife graduated from UGA as well, so that would really be win-win. I think another poor showing by Richt next year could put him out the door. That quick. And if AJ Green is smart, he would get the fuck out of there after next year, regardless. But back to Smart, you have to wonder just how quickly he would consider UGA.
Its not like Saban is going to stay at Alabama forever. FWIW, I think this is Saban's last stop. If we're lucky, we get another 5 years out of him. Of course nobody knows what either program will look like in 5 years, but its a safe bet to assume the cupboard will be full with some top shelf talent. If UGA's cupboard isn't all that full, would you rather rebuild a program from scratch, or take over one on cruise control?
