Sources close to the situation in Athens feel Georgia Bulldogs Head Coach Kirby Smart WILL listen to an offer from Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank in the next few days. Earlier today the Falcons fired Head Coach Arthur Smith after 3 seasons. It is believed that the new world of college football with NIL deals and the transfer portal make the NFL more appealing to coach Smart than ever before. The current broken structure of college football forces coaches to perpetually recruit high school players, possible transfers, and their own current players year round. Smart who played at Georgia, has won two national championships as the Bulldogs Head Coach. The Falcons are in position to offer Smart almost double his current contract! Smart ranks 3rd of all college coaches making just over $10 million annually. The top group of coaches in the NFL are making roughly $20 million annually. Another factor in the decision is the pressure of playing in the SEC. Essentially every week in college football is a must win situation for national contenders. NFL teams can have a successful year and playoff run with a 9-8 record. Stay tuned for updates as this is a fluid situation.

For 20M, maybe. But he wouldn't have to buy new sweaters.***

99% of college head coaches never become a successful head coach in the NFL. Will he be different? I guess we will see.
Spurrier - Failed
Saban - Failed
Chip Kelly - Failed
Rhule - Failed
List goes on and on.

When you look at what he did at Stanford, 49ers and now UM. It’s pretty impressive.
Ok, I am going to go and vomit now.

about the end of his time at the 49ers. I feel like they weren't sad to see him go. I'm terrified the Raiders are going to mess up and hire him when they should give the job to AP.
