Alabama pointing a finger at anyone for cheating is absolutely laughable.

When did Alabama cheat? I'll wait for your response.
Before NIL when they bought and paid for the top recruiting classes. Bama recruits Facebook posting pics of their new cars and wads of cash the day after signing.
Remember when Trent Richardson had a brand new Maxima? Then he comes up with a brand new Yukon with $5000 worth of wheels and tires on it? He still had the Maxima.
An "unemployed", 20 year old college student with two children under the age of 5, and has two brand new rides. By the way, who was paying the child support?
Here is where he got those wheels. Hot Wheelz in Mobile, AL
Bear Bryant wrote the book on cheating. Nick Saban perfected it.
When did Alabama not cheat? If Alabama is winning, they're cheating.
