Bama was able to do so out in the open without any media pressure or NCAA investigations
Alabama got put on three years probation, was fined $44000, and had to vacate a bunch of wins because athletes sold their textbooks at the end of the semester. The NCAA hammered Alabama because they said because the athletes received the textbooks at no charge as part of their scholarship and then sold them, they were impermissible benefits.
Again, Alabama got three years of probation because athletes across 16 different sports sold their text books at the end of the semester.
But you were saying?

If Alabama wasn’t behind in NIL, that half punt MFer would still be coaching.

The NCAA announced those penalties in 2009.
Guess who became NCAA President the next year? Saban’s buddy Mark Emmert.
While Alabama was still on probation, DJ Fluker received extra benefits.

Of course, that all got swept under the rug.
