On Wednesday, Alabama head coach Nick Saban accused Jackson State of paying roughly $1 million for one player to commit to the school...

quote:
"Jackson State paid a guy a million dollars last year that was a really good Division I player to come to school," Saban said. "It was in the paper. They bragged about it. Nobody did anything about it."

Jackson State head coach Deion Sanders believes Saban is referring to five-star cornerback Travis Hunter, the No. 1 recruit from the 2022 class and he is ticked...

Saban comes off like a pussy here, but of course deion is gonna play the fricking race card

Deion's really gonna act like they didn't pay to get Travis there...:HilarityEnsues:

so I guess we won't be seeing saban and deion in those aflac commercials anymore? first saban saying that TAMU paid every player in the 2022 class, now this? haven't seen saban this mad since he went to indianapolis to try and get the rules changed for up-tempo offenses

Yet Saban was never investigated for the Chargers, or Tua's family home, because he got the current NCAA president his job. He had dirty hands for years, but complains aboot people using NIL, because, Muh unfair advantage.

Saban is a little bitch with the belief that every top player belongs to him and Bama.

HonoraryCoonass•43 months

Deion plays the race card. Shocked.

Enjuhnear•43 months

Yall notice how only black people get accused of playing the race card?

Tiger Ike•43 months

He's posturing for reform to the current state of NIL. He knows the current format is not sustainable. He's as guilty as the rest but it's not like he's gonna tell on himself.

It's funny how Fisher, Saban, and Sanders are all talking semantics. Of course your school didn't pay, the school's boosters did though. And that five star Hunter kid knows damn well he didn't go to that school without getting a payout.

So I guess Deion Sanders being racist doesn't matter because he's black. Noted.

Quickest race card draw I’ve ever seen.

That grand old gentleman of college football, Bear Bryant, is still the only coach that admitted be did when left A & M on a death penalty probation. Parting words when he went to Alabama, "I am going where they don't squeal about cheating".

Those AFLAC commercials are about to get interesting.

Response makes no sense.

Sterling Archer•43 months

Saban is coming off like a little bitch

jbird7•43 months

Hopefully this means we don’t see anymore stupid Aflac commercials with these two.

PEOPLE LIE.

I think Neon thought better than to have a big press conference. His handlers did a good job in saying let it go.
