Saban admitting breaking the rules, and cheating…


There are so many legitimate ways to let players know where they are needed and they all know hoe to communicate.

Guys are jumping into the portal and they have "no contact" tags on their big jump. They know where they are going BEFORE they get in. How did that happen, Sherlock?

Sounds like Saban is saying that Alabama would have liked to have gotten this player out of the portal if he had ever entered the portal. He never entered, so they couldn’t.

Not sure how that is tampering. They can scout players from other teams all they want.

Seems like others agree with my assessment of Saban’s comment:

Just so you know, TidalSurge passed away last year. Probably wouldn’t troll using his name.

So I guess you are upset that Tennessee couldn't cheat as well as others?

Nick Saban on ABC about Toledo CB Quinyon Mitchell: "He was our No. 1 guy in the portal last year to try to get him to come out of the portal, and he would never get in the portal."

This is the same guy that went to congress crying about NIL and how it was bad for college football, but yet he is openly cheating and breaking the rules.

Saban exact words at the draft tonight!

So Bama fans, you still think Saban didn’t break the rules and the NCAA allowed it and looked the other way?


You are making your own assumptions. All he is saying is that he was someone they identified as someone they wanted to get out of the transfer portal, but he never went into the transfer portal to get him.

Otherwise, he would have said they couldn't get him to transfer. The only reason you want to get them into the transfer portal is so you can contact them.

How is that cheating?

What are the rules anyway?

He pushed to get a guy to transfer? Sounds normal in todays new landscape…

Saban built his career off cheating.

Slaughtering the hogs 17 years in a row didn't hurt.

You aren't allowed to contact a player until they are in the portal.

All Saban is saying is they hoped he would enter the portal so they could recruit him, but he never did.

I can guarantee you he will not.

As far as the OP, it's a dumb post. But that is also par for the course, so carry on.

Reading comprehension isn't your strong point. Nowhere in that statement is an admission to tampering, cheating, or anything else.

But all teams don’t go crying to congress about the rules while you are actively breaking those rules.

Why would they plan for a kid that’s not even in the portal if they hadn’t been talking to him already? You don’t waste time recruiting kids you know you don’t have a chance at.
