especially the last part: "Several former players who have recently left the program and still know a lot of the players on the team confirm that Kirby’s style is much more action packed. The workload is significantly more than the previous staff. Some players asked Alabama transfer Mo Smith how things were different at Alabama under Nick Saban. Smith’s answer: “That’s just the thing… its exactly the same. We are doing exactly what we did at Alabama.”

"I know that I don’t want to be on the wrong side of it when Kirby gets it going," said one former player in coaching. "I believe it - he will beat Nick Saban when he gets it going. He’s going to split it - split what Alabama can get."
