Is there anybody in college football that has been more busy than Kirby Smart during the last month or so?
Not only is he trying to help Alabama to a national championship as the defensive coordinator at Alabama, but he’s also trying to assemble a staff and recruiting class for his new gig as the head coach at Georgia.
Not even 48 hours removed from coaching in the College Football Playoff semifinals for Alabama, Smart was in Florida on Saturday in support of Georgia, as the Bulldogs are taking on Penn State in the TaxSlayer Bowl.
He took some time to join the ESPN broadcast crew in the booth during halftime.
Here is a glimpse of what he had to say about how he’s able to successfully juggle both roles:
