re: With every school able to pay players, Saban retires and cries for change

I don't have a problem with Saban being involved with being able to advocate for change and he has the platform to do it.
A strong voice is needed right now and he can definitely provide that and you have to respect what he says with no dog in the fight anymore.
It's not sustainable long term and it will start to impact other sports.

You have to get the transfer portal solved first but when you have teams pushing back against any transfer restrictions it's gonna be difficult. It's why the SEC and Big Ten need to come up with some guidelines they want to play by whether other conferences want to adapt to or not.
