Former Alabama Star Has A Question For Dabo Swinney
© Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports
In an interview with ESPN two years ago, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney had this to say about the possibility of college athletes getting paid...
quote:

“They may want to professionalize college athletics,” Swinney said. “Well, then, maybe I’ll go to the pros. If I’m going to coach pro football, I might as well do that.”
With the new NCAA rule being passed on Wednesday, allowing for athletes to be compensated for use of their Name, Image, and Likeness, former Alabama player Marlon Humphrey had this question for Dabo... Hmm...

Certain college athletes were already getting paid in some fashion. I think both Dabo and Humphreys know that.

The schools are not paying the players. The market is.

I would hate to be a college football head coach these days. What a nightmare world with all the crap they have to deal with from the entitled aholes they coach.

Easy to do over social media...everyone is so tough behind their keyboard. At least he spelled everything correctly.

Players have been doing this for a while and absolutely nothing is wrong with it. That's not his coach, never was his coach, and never will be his coach.

Looks like to me he said he would go to the pros. If anything he should call him out to see if he will go pro, not quit.

Looks to me like he actually said “maybe” I’ll go to the pros. Humphrey needs to focus on his Bama scout team future.

By regular you mean dabo's 2-2 vs Bama. I get if your team only has 1 win vs that team in the last decade, 2 must seem like a lot more frequent. It's not.
