Nobody here is saying tamu cheated, but surely you can see how they went beyond the spirit of NIL rules.

Jimbo is pissed because he took it personally. Without the pay, would he have gotten the players? That's why he is cross. In the back of his mind he knows he would not obtained that class and he seems to be embarrassed about it.

It makes him seem lesser

Did Texas A&M get top recruiting class before NIL? No. Wonder why? When NIL was available Texas A&M took advantage of that and got a top recruiting class. What about Alabama when Nick became Alabama HC, he didn't get top recruit for like four years! Then boom! Got 17 or so 4* and got the number one recruiting class. his record wasn't impressive too. Then he started winning big since the recruiting class were way up! That was not with NIL or transfer portal being modified like this past year. How was Fisher obvious? He followed the NIL rules and Texas rules. So you have no cause against Fisher and Texas A&M. But there should have been a an investigation on Saban and Alabama when he was able to get 17 or so 4* that was only getting 4 the most during his time at Alabama. You need to look back at that before pointing out what Fisher did. NIL wasn't available back then for Nick Saban.

How about Alabama when there was no NIL when Saban was hired> He didn't get good recruits for about 3 or 4 years then boom top recruits that was well more than Alabama average of 3 to 4 * recruits to 17 4* recruits and he wasn't even winning either. was averaging 5 to 6 wins a year that time. Why all of a suddenly getting top recruiting class that was way beyond normal for Alabama. I didn't even know that until someone pointed that out. NIL changed everything. So, Texas A&M took advantage of that and was able to get the top recruiting class. What did Fisher and Texas A&M do wrong? Saban and Alabama never had good record and high recruiting class for those 3 or 4 years before he hit big and that time there was no NIL. So, how did he do it? There was no NIL back then.

Absolutely they did. Do you think Alabama, Georgia, LSU etc have gone beyond the spirit of some rules the past few years?

The faux outrage just seems odd.

They did. A stupid “NIL” rule was written saying players could make a commercial for local restaurant or charge their a jersey signature.

aTm said F it, let’s bribe all the top recruits and pretend it’s for Bryan college station local ads.

So you expected us to be the “Aw shucks” farmers and just go along. Yeah, no.

That ain’t happening. It ain’t like it used to be. We will spend whatever it takes to beat you.

So get used to either spending a hell of a lot more than you used to, or get used to losing.

“ Nobody here is saying tamu cheated, but surely you can see how they went beyond the spirit of NIL rules.”

Tell us what you can see. While you’re at it, can you see the nil activities at other schools too. Since you’re obviously magic, let’s here it.
