Smart Celebrates Muschamp’s Longhorn Homecoming
Georgia head coach Kirby Smart applauded former co-defensive coordinator Will Muschamp for accepting the defensive coordinator role at Texas, praising his passion and prior success in Austin.

Maybe he’ll autograph your nostalgic playbook and sign it, “Love, Will.” Next up: live-streamed group hugs during recruiting visits, complete with sappy soundtrack. After all, who needs trash talk when you can have tear-stained eyeglasses and shared fond memories of zone blitzes past?
