Georgia’s investment in Kirby Smart of $112.5 million is money well spent after his….
Georgia football head coach Kirby Smart provided his first impressions of new Alabama football head coach Kalen DeBoer.
SEC football and college football as a whole has undergone some changes this offseason, but perhaps none were bigger than the change that occurred at Alabama back in January. The legendary head coach Nick Saban announced his retirement which led to the program hiring former Washington head coach Kalen DeBoer. While DeBoer hasn’t been around the SEC for long, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart provided his initial thoughts on the new head man.
Coach Smart was one of several SEC head coaches to participate in the celebrity pro-am at Greystone Golf and Country Club. Prior to Smart beginning his round, he provided media with his time to talk about both coach DeBoer and Saban.
“Don’t know much about Kalen,” Smart said. “I’ve been in a couple meetings with him, SEC head coach meetings. Been great to get to know him. Shared some thoughts in those meetings that we all share, kind of in our little head coach family, but seemed like a great guy.”
As for what Smart had to say about coach Saban, he had nothing but good things to say about his former boss, as per usual.
