Giddy. Wordless. Surprise. Bewilderment.
Awestruck.
Yes, I think awestruck is the best way to describe how I felt when the news dropped. Like yours I'm sure, my phone began to buzz incessantly. I tried to keep up with the scrolls of message boards and twitter, and easily resisted logging onto FB where I was sure to find...

Two other thoughts. First, what an amazing career for Coach Saban. He set the standard in the 2010's, one that we strived for even as we rebuked it. Remember "The Georgia Way"? Kirby Smart may very well still be our head coach without Nicholas Lou Saban Jr., but would he be the coach he is today without him? Would he be able to manage his roster with such savvy?
Would two years ago last night have been as sweet? No. So a humble hat tip to the man that set the standard that only our coach could surpass.
Second, now this is the kind of coaching search that should be televised 24/7 until Dan Mullen calls Tuscaloosa home! 😜
