Does Kirby Smart to the Falcons have legs?

Kirby has it made at UGA. Does he want to coach pro ball?

NFL actually has an off-season

no, that was a fake X account you may have seen

With the new college football, he already is coaching a form of pro football. The real question is if the Falcons want to drop $15mil a year to get him. I doubt he'd leave for a pay cut.

Pay cut? Kirby makes $13.2M annually with a potential $1.5M in bonuses

Yes, so that would mean Atlanta would need to pay him $15mil or more to get him to leave UGA. I doubt the Falcons would be willing to pay what it would take to get him.

Arthur Blank has the money, easy

I want them to hire Hue Jackson.

That would piss off most of their fan base. It would be like the Saints poaching LSU’s coach.

Pay cut....if you say so

frick off

Smart would fail if he brings bobo with him

Kirby is just not an NFL coach.

The Falcons aren’t going to give a contract with anywhere close to that type of buyout to a coach with no NFL experience

Chargers are paying Harbaugh $16m, so it wouldn’t be out the question for Kirby to get $15m

Why can people not understand that’s not how buyouts work? That 100M is of UGA were to fire him. If he were to leave on his own, it’s a 5M buyout

He does, but for whatever reason, he has never been willing to pay top dollar for a coach.

If he goes to the NFL, he’s starting fresh. He’ll be on the hotseat in 3 years if he hasn’t made the playoffs and won’t have $100M buyout.
