Head for the NFL? Smart has been with him for a decade or more. Could be the sign of a jump for Saban.
To make this Mullen coaching rumor related.... Mullen to Alabama.

Jeremy Pruitt to Bama.
Yep. Cochran to Georgia with Smart. Maybe Napier and Schumann.Quote:

UGA still the overwhelming favorite.Quote:

YepQuote:

All I'm telling you is a lot of the rumors down here right now are saying Pruitt will stay on as DC. Again, this will be Smart's call.Quote:

Muschamp may be getting the SC job.
I don't get the muschamp hype. He sucked at Florida (look at them now with the same players as muschamp had), he sucked at Auburn (Jacksonville State 2.0). Why would anybody in the SEC hop on him again after all of that not even a few years ago now?
He sucked as a head coach at Florida but his defenses were very very good. I think Auburn had just way too many holes to judge him on this year much. Their numbers at the end of the year was a good bit better than the beginning. But I wouldn't be looking at him for head coach. DC...yes, head coach...noQuote:

He's going to retire a college football coach. The NFL dream is over.Quote:
