Indicates key issue is with NIL structure
quote:
Nick Saban on @SIRIUSXM radio: “Collectives are the issue. … If alumni give money or money is raised thru a collective to be used to give to players, that’s no different than the alumni giving a player money. Alumni is a representative of the school and can’t do that.”

quote:
Alabama coach Nick Saban singled out Texas A&M for "buying" its top-ranked signing class and threw a spotlight on the unintended effect of name, image and likeness rights on recruiting during an event with local business leaders Wednesday night in Birmingham.
"I mean, we were second in recruiting last year," Saban told the audience. "A&M was first. A&M bought every player on their team -- made a deal for name, image, likeness. We didn't buy one player, all right? But I don't know if we're gonna be able to sustain that in the future because more and more people are doing it. It's tough."
Saban said Alabama players made $3 million "doing it the right way" last year and that only 25 players were able to leverage NIL opportunities.
He isn't the first coach to call out the Aggies by name. In February, Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin quipped, "Texas A&M was going to incur a luxury tax in how much they paid for their signing class."
Jimbo's response
quote:
Jimbo Fisher on Saban's comments: "Despicable." Calls Saban a "narcissist." Here we go ...
Jimbo says he won't take Saban's call. "We're done."
"You coach with people like Bobby Bowden and learn how to do things. You coach with other people (Saban) and you learn how not to do things."
Now he's hammering Saban for his "operations and tactics." All but declaring that Saban has been violating NCAA rules for years.
Jimbo: I don't cheat and I don't lie. I learned that as a kid ... old man would slap you upside the head. Maybe somebody should have slapped him.

You best believe I will address that LIE Coach SABAN told tomorrow. I was & awakened by my son @ShedeurSanders that sent me the article stating that WE PAYED @TravisHunterJr a Million to play at @GoJSUTigersFB ! We as a PEOPLE don’t have to pay our PEOPLE to play with our PEOPLE.

I’m with Saban on this, but it’s obvious that Jimbo convinced himself that NIL was legal to use for pay to play.

Jimbo is so sensitive
quote:
Ex-Florida State star Travis Johnson responds to Nick Saban's "A&M bought every player on their team" comment by alleging that Alabama offered the former 5-star recruit "6 figures" in the Class of 2000:
"Y'all was NIL before NIL."

No doubt. Saban's tirade is pretty funny

Lord Saban will not be taking a knee to run the clock out this year. There will be no mercy!

.@RealJayWilliams says Saban needs to re-evaluate mentioning Coach Prime in his latest comments.
“Deion has issues even bussing players to games. … When you start attacking that, a guy that is trying to give back to his community, then I start getting a little bit frustrated.”

I'm thinking about Trent Richardson at this moment. New cars, momma got a 4 bedroom house at below market rent and a transfer as an assistant Mgr at Popeyes.
I am also thinking Tua. Dad conveniently had a cousin working at Birmingham Airport.
Nick should not be throwing stones.
It was a matter of time before one of the Texas teams leveraged the money they could get from alumni

Oh, I definitely think Nick probably should not have made that statement. I hope they both nuke each other into oblivion and there are no short rounds in BR.

Just asked Lane Kiffin for his thoughts on Jimbo going scorched Earth on his old mentor, Nick Saban: "Speechless for the first time in my life."
quote:
Lane Kiffin to @TheAthletic about what was going thru his mind watching Jimbo light up Saban: “This can’t really be happening...is this real life?'
“I still haven’t moved from my seat. That should've been on Pay-Per-View."
quote:
Spoke to a former SEC assistant on the Saban-Jimbo blowup in It Just Means More land: "There has ALWAYS been an “honor amongst thieves” mantra in the league and those two just called each other’s wives fat to a global audience."
