"Someone with one of the best corners in the nation (in high school) came to me and asked if we’d pay them $800,000 for the player to sign here. I told him he can find another place to play," Saban said, via OutKick. "I’m not paying a kid a bunch of NIL money before he earns it."

Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin, tweeted out the news story as a small jab at him...

Maybe if Lane followed suit, he would have better players who actually want to play for him. Still not seeing the troll though.

Of course that would be illegal for you to coordinate with the collective, right, Nick?

Of course it would be just like you to continue your obsession with Saban. Get over it. Instead of trying to knock him people need to applaud what he did.

I have no problem with Nick Saban. I have a problem with this laughable Chinese firewall between the schools and the collectives.

How is that a jab? Dafuq writers, how do you constantly misinterpret tweets?

I think the "jab" is referring to the fact that Nick said he wouldn't pay a player before he earns it. He's not supposed to be paying any players to come to Alabama and yet that's what he said.

I don't get the "slight jab" description. It's a pretty straight forward account of what Saban said. Lane was merely repeating it. Maybe Lane supports Saban doing what I'm sure a lot of other coaches would like to do.

I can't wait for these prices to tank and these starry eyed numb skulls learn just what their football worth is.

Poor nick, he only ended up with 2 top 5 corners and 9 5 stars overall.
