Th reason Kirby is so good at a younger age than Saban was (46 as you referenced above) is that Kirby worked with Coach Saban for so long and learned from him. Saban is still the GOAT but he is getting older. Kirby is at a great age. Unfortunately I think he will stay at UGA for a long time and win a lot of games/maybe a few more championships before he retires or goes to NFL.
I just want Coach Saban to win at least 1 more National Championship at Bama before he decides to leave the program in someone else's hands. I personally think he will coach until he physically can't. I don't see him retiring unless for medical reasons.
I hope Coach Saban has another championship run left in him. I would certainly love to see it.
It is funny that two years ago people mocked Kirby and Harbaugh and said neither would win championships until they updated their offenses and found superstar QBs who could sling it all over the place. People said that defense was dead (Yes, I agree that defenses have to play with one hand tied behind their backs due to current rules.) and you couldn't just rely on defense, toughness, and the running game. Now, many of those same people say Kirby has the best program in America, and Harbaugh is making some OSU fans think that Ryan Day should be fired.
I do hope we get our toughness back where other teams are ready to quit in the fourth quarter instead of marching the ball down our throats. I also hope we can run the ball effectively when we need to while still keeping the ability to hurt teams through the air. I'm looking forward to the Sugar Bowl to see what we focused on during bowl preparation.
