You think Alabama was the only school paying players? Also they have the #1 ranked class for 2023. Their recruiting hasn’t fallen off like you are saying.

And you also have to consider that Texas didn't play their best because they were so intimidated by that huge and boisterous SEC crowd.

Its not that they aren’t recruiting well, its that players aren’t staying in the system to wait their turn

They have no loyalty to Bama. If they don’t get starts and a lot of playing time they are outta there. They also aren’t getting coached up like in previous years. Saban has all but checked out.

Alabama’s problem is that they don’t have a quarterback.

That's one problem of many. Their OL, WR, CBs, etc. are not performing like the teams of past either. And Saban turns 72 this October.

Have known for quite awhile, now. NIL is Saban's Death Star.

Alabama’s problem is that they don’t have a quarterback. Milroe made some athletic plays last night, he’s a great athlete. Bu, he also missed some touchdown throws that the Tide’s QBs of the last 15 years would have made. As we all know, In today’s college football, the QB is crucial, and Jalen Milroe isn’t there yet. If he doesn’t get better soon, it’s going to be a real problem for Bama.


Milroe ain’t it. Poor kid looked like a deer in the headlights all night.

This is recency bias without any validity. How many titles has Saban won with a 5* qb as starter? Exactly 0.(Tua didn't start the game)
Defenses being behind offenses and his lack of good coaching/development on that side of the ball is when the dynasty began to show chinks. His defenses are the reason for the decline. They can't cover(the asses) average, game managers(Milroe) anymore. They couldn't carry Bryce Young.

Kirby learned from the Master. If you don't think the money train has been in high gear in Athens for the last 4 years I have some investment deals I'd love to talk to you about.

Recruiting rankings are shite and recruiting "gurus" are frauds. They base their player ratings largely on who is recruiting the player.

He learned at the Nicky academy of cheating - err - coaching.
Work ethic? You mean all the tickets and incidents that the Athens PD ignores??

Didn’t Saban just sign the #1 class that had more 5 stars than A&M’s class?


Recruiting has only gotten better since NIL. It’s not the problem for bama, despite the chorus of idiots here.

frick non-saint Little Nicky gets his due but he's not the GOAT.

#1 or 2 classes every year and still raids the portal for the top WR, OT, RB, LB, etc. for top talent. He should win the title at least every other year.
