Also tired of auburn fans thinking bama was paying players under the table and we (and everyone else) weren’t. It’s just naive and stupid. I literally watched Michael dyer get paid by an old white dude at 17-16 in the open when I was there.

Auburn and other had to drive 74 in a 65, Bama could go at 120. NCAA looked the other way, the Machine is real and had ways to funnel $$$$. They also had tradition. We made a move, until they got serious with Saban and facilities.
