This is a billion-dollar business and players are the main assets. They should have a say as employees. Coach Saban is right. If the grownups can only throw cold hard cash, and greed at these problems, let the kids be totally invested and see what they can do in a CBA.



He's absolutely wrong.

NIL is outside the purview of college sports.
Employees.
Not employees.
Union.
No union.

None of it stops Nike from throwing money at athletes.
None of it stops Morgan and Morgan from throwing money at athletes.
Nothing stops a Dodge dealership in Tuscaloosa from throwing money at athletes.

How many simpletons are on this site?
Nothing out of Saban's mouth is credible.
It is 100% designed to help him and his team win.
And for the salary he makes, I don't blame him.

But why do fools fall for his shite?
That I will never understand.

Tide fans here realize that, and some of us love to "poke the monkey".
It's like the old adage:
"If you bait a trap with pussy, you'll catch 90% of the guys every time."

It sure is, meanwhile, greedy cigar-smoking boosters are throwing ridiculous amounts of money at these players hoping to change football fortunes. Nothing like unregulated greed to show us the way to prosperity.

It would be far easier to feel good about whatever decision is made in college football if we actually knew what the overall labor force would do if it were given its own democratic vote.
