In response to "The arguement (which I don't buy) is the Smart would be lining himself up to take over when Kiffin is inevitably be fired." by musubi

The problem with this is...

Smart can only hurt himself by doing this. At Alabama, he continues to look like a defensive genius. If he goes to USC and struggles as an underling, he has no chance of getting a better job. Conversely, if he does well, Kiffin does not get fired. So there is no upside play.

While I mostly agree with you, I think Kiffin's regression to his wacky behavior this year puts his job in jeopardy - musubi Nov 30, 10:10 1
- And yes, I realize I am letting my analysis be colored by the fact that I'd love to see Smart become the DC. (nm) - musubi Nov 30, 10:11
