Played at Kent St under Don Jmaes. After graduating (yes, they did that back then), Saban was set to go out and get a job. He absolutely didn't want to get into coaching.
Don James saw something in Saban and convinced him to stay on at Kent St as a GA. The rest is history
I agree with you about KS being their #1 target but I don't think Smart will jump ship. He's a Georgia grad. Georgia will throw more money at him AND give him an extension. But, we'll see...
Agree with you 100%. I was going to add my opinion, just decided not to.... Even if he wasn't a UGA grad, it'd still be extremely difficult to leave what they now have going in Athens.
Which branch did Saban come from?

Kirby Smart will be Bama's #1 target, no doubt about that at all. Georgia will fight to the death to keep him... blank check situation
That's no tree that's a forest.
