Nuts. I happened to walk Bama’s campus pre-Saban many times. Hard to describe the development during the Saban era. Dude produced > $1b value for that school.

I was at school there from 13-17, and grew up going a lot. It’s insane how much it changed once he got there, and even in the few years since I left when I go back now.

We will never see another run like Saban had at Alabama. Conference realignment, NIL, the transfer portal, and now add in revenue sharing. Player acquisition and retention has changed. Head coaches and programs no longer hold all the power.

Would not surprise me one bit if coaches and programs lobbied Congress to try and restore some of the power they’ve lost.
 
LOL, Bama fans are mad that the NCAA finally allowed everyone to do what they have been doing for YEARS.

"He shoulda built an NIL dynasty and that way they would've changed it back." They were never going to change it back. Once Pandora's box was opened, College Football was irrevocably changed forever.

I would ask, had Bamer not been the best in the nation laundering money and assets to players, would Saban had really the same success? My guess is no. Probably would've been a successful coach there, but I don't think he would've gotten as far as he did without the bags.

Self inflicted.. think back to how they wanted us to get the death penalty for some Benihana dinners and some lap dances in 2012-13… that’s absolutely peanuts compared to what’s going on now.

Why? Because the NCAA wanted total control over the “student athlete” and wanted to them to have zero slice of the huge billion dollar pie
