re: Nick Saban pushes for players to 'unionize,' has 'no problem' with athletes being paid

A lot of people make this mistake with his comments. Alabama is not struggling with NIL. He has routinely made correct observations about the direction of the sport. He called exactly what would happen with the 4-team playoff. He’s not crying because Alabama can’t compete on NIL. He’s telling everyone Alabama and others will kill competitiveness in major football for good. And he’s right.

I think what the powers that be will determine is that’s okay.
