What does playing in the NFL have to do with anything? The best coaches in the world didn't play in the NFL.
Let's not get carried away with our bias. Kirby Smart is likely one of the best DB coaches in the country. As of right now his resume for developing DB's completely destroys Rumph's.
Just being objective.
His resume for developing dbs??? Saban is the db coach at Bama no?
Smart coached DB's and was the DC under Saban.
Please, let's not even go there. It's one thing to be a fan, it's another thing to be completely naive. Rumph ain't touching Smart.
I've seen multiple videos of Saban coaching CBs at Bama.
And?
There's probably videos of him coaching everything on the defense. That's what DC's do. Just cause you saw a video of Saban being hands-on with the CB's doesn't mean Smart sits back and twiddles his thumbs.
Like I can't believe people are really sitting here and implying that Mike Rumph, who was coaching high school a couple years ago, is a better DB coach then the former DC at the University of Alabama. LOL
You're talking about all of the DBs that Smart has developed. I never said Smart wasn't doing anything in particular. You said that.
I pointed out that at no point have I ever seen Smart coach up the DBs directly. I've seen numerous times that it's Saban who's hands-on with the CBs. It's similar to how it is in Miami where Richt is hands-on with the QB - it's their respective specialties.
