In four years at Georgia, Pittman developed the Bulldogs’ offensive line into one of the better units in the SEC, but is perhaps best known for his work on the recruiting trail.

Pittman is responsible for signing future first-round draft pick Andrew Thomas, along with five-stars Isaiah Wilson, Cade Mays, and Jamaree Salyer. He currently has five offensive linemen committed in the Rivals250.

As to who might be in line to replace Pittman, keep an eye on former Ole Miss head coach Matt Luke, who according to sister site RebelGrove.com, has been in touch with Smart.

Luke, who was fired by the Rebels and replaced by Lane Kiffin, enjoyed considerably serving as the team's Co-Offensive Coordinator from 2012 to 2016 prior to becoming head coach.
