Saban: Texas A&M 'bought every player on team'

Alabama coach Nick Saban accused Texas A&M of "buying" its top-ranked signing class as he lamented the effect of the current NIL model on recruiting.

Oh the irony!

What a hipocrite

Scared

Saban big mad. If he keeps poking the wrong bear, somebody is going to expose him for Alabama's past doings. Alabama was the Dodge Charger capital of The United States at one point. Lol

 

[puertorricane]

A millionaire coach that's mad that the players that make his salary possible are getting paid.
Recruiters should show this article to every player.

Saban when other programs get to pay their players too:

Although I agree that it's not sustainable, this is laughable coming from Saban and Bama.

Go down to McDonald's Nicky getcha some "whamburgers" and "French cries" !!! Wish this whiner would retire already! Bama been doing the same **** for years!

So it’s all good when Bama’s bagman is setting up Tua’s family as they moved from Hawaii to Tuscaloosa of all places. Or when the whole players parking lot looking like a dodge Charger magazine lol

Lol. How the tables turn just like that.

@Dwinstitles NIL is our best friend.

 

[RVACane]

Gaytor fans are actually praising Saban and hoping he can help save them here from schools like aTm and Miami. Some others are calling him a hypocrite.

"Just sign with us first, and then we will pay. That way we can say other teams paid to sign players. But we didn't"

Like, didn't Bryce Young get paid a mil pretty early his freshman year? Or when he was the starter?

 

[COCane4Life]

It’s wild to me that he really wants to play this game. It’s like cheating on a test then complaining because you find out everyone else cheated but you mad cause you wanted the highest grade. STFU Nick!

 

[CaneinBroward]

Totally laughable for Saban to have the cajones to make such claims.

That being said, there has to be a come-to-Jesus moment on the way for the revenue producing college sports. The explosion of the transfer portal and NIL contracts are basically turning college programs into mini-pro teams where you need to not only have a personnel department looking for players coming out of high school, but for the "free agents" at other colleges. All of this while trying to maintain a straight face in keeping non-profit tax status, Title IX, and state funding.

 

[Angry Ibis]

So how do we make a ******* public circus out of this for him.

Is @TrumpyCane busy running for office?

Let’s get to it

 

[Canesince02]

I can’t wait to see the skeletons in Saban’s closet. He’s about to get exposed
