Idk if he did or not. Maybe? I couldn’t care less if Saban sounds ridiculous and grouchy sometimes. He’s old and grouchy. And clearly still motivated to kick the frick out of y’all and everyone else.

So he was talking to a room full of business owners and asked them to consider Alabama players for marketing deals? Is that not how NIL works?

Isn’t the rumor that aTm pooled close to 30 million dollars to pay high school kids to attend aTm?

This whole situation is hilarious. It’s like the two head coaches are the last people on the planet to get the memo everyone else knows they have cheated.

Dude this isn’t hard. Just say “Saban was a lying hypocrite” last night

It’s easy and therapeutic

Everyone is using NIL to cheat and recruit players. Everyone. A&M just did it better

I’d have no problem saying that.

But we’re going to have to dig into this a little more for me to do it.

What did he lie about?

ETA: That is yet to be seen, no? Clearly what aTm did was enough to send shockwaves through the NCAA, who took swift action to I guess fix it. And they might not be done in that regard.

What do you mean aTm did it better? Explain.

but what they're doing is legal (for now) so I don't get why Jimbo refuses to acknowledge it in a sorry not sorry manner.

Instead he wants to pretend he and A&M are suddenly this destination school and it has nothing to do with NIL, the timeline is just pure coincidence.

To what degree?

Do I have to bend the knee and tell you Saban is a dirty liar if all he has ever done is something to the effect of, “hey, coming to Alabama will be great for you. Our players have opportunities for fantastic NIL deals.”

That’s “using NIL to get a recruit, I guess.

Is that the same as aTm coaches and boosters working together to pay an incoming recruiting class millions of dollars?(idk if this happened or not)

Both nick and jimbo look like assclowns

Nick: Texas a&m bought their class

Jimbo: you've been doing it.


Neither admitting culpability. Bad look.

it was literally something some random person on on OU message board threw out that some dumb website literally named brobile wrote an article on and the entire world went crazy over it

that 30 million dollar thing was literally just shitposting on a rival schools message board that the world just took as truth

How does that happen

I assume that’s exactly what Saban is referring to

All from a poster named “sliced bread”

Reauxl, it would be the equivalent of me, on this site, saying Saban pays every player 75K from his personal account, then people running with it from outside sources

basically that person posted it on their 247 board and erroneously had a "STAFF" tag on his username all because he wrote one article on like their 2014 softball team and just never had it taken off

so people just assumed he was an actual person employed by 247 to give information out as opposed to being just a guy just posting on a board no different than what we are doing now
