In a conversation that began on the topic of how difficult and time-consuming recruiting has become for the assistant coaches of prominent programs, Scarbinsky ended up offering a lot of insight into how recruiting has played a role in Bryan Harsin’s rapid fall from grace in The Plains.
An Alabama win over Arkansas this weekend will set up a Titanic matchup in the SEC Championship game between Georgia and Alabama. Smart is 0-4 against Alabama while at the helm for Georgia but his 2021 squad looks to be the team to break that streak and potentially eliminate the Crimson Tide from playoff contention.
Former Alabama strength and conditioning coach and University of Georgia special teams coordinator Scott Cochran has reportedly stepped away from the Bulldog program. Cochran left Alabama for Georgia to take an on-field coaching role in the spring of 2020.
If Mac Jones keeps up his insanely productive play, the Crimson Tide have a far better chance of beating the Georgia Bulldogs, with or without Nick Saban.
Saban is a perfect 19-0 when it comes to taking on his former assistant coaches and when the Tide takes on the Texas A&M Aggies this weekend, Saban will have to contend with another of his former employees. In fact, Saban will face a former assistant coach in each of the next four games on the Alabama schedule.
