Wow...
ETA: the takeaway is that it's clear Saban hates the current state of CFB because he can't be the dictator/lord of the manor he used to be. Players have too much power.
Mind you, I agree with him. I hate NIL and the transfer portal. But CFB is becoming more like the environment he faced in Miami in the NFL and we know how that turned out.

I love anything that gives the players more power. The coaches and schools are raking in dough by the truckload.

The irony, though, is that we didn’t beat him with a bunch of NIL millionaires. We have a couple of guys with deals to be sure, but nothing like some of our competitors (Bama included).
We beat him with a bunch of guys who bought into what BK was selling and continued to get better each and every week. Everyone from Boutte to Josh Williams played selfless football. Speaking of which, we have multiple former walk ons starting.
Meanwhile Texas A&M’s NIL dollars bought them a 3-6 season to date.
It’s kind of crazy when you think about it.

We know when Saban realized he couldn't control players in the NFL he quit. With the changes in college football and Saban not having that control over his players, I don't see him lasting much longer.
