Literally every school in the SEC has permitted transfers within the SEC, including Alabama.


Transfers are permitted but waiving the year is at the schools discretion.

Yes it was but not because of Saban

Invoking the rule that all 14 member schools agreed upon is showing his arse?

just to nitpick, but similar, it's not just waiving the year, they also sign off on the particular school

Saban played a part in this as well. He tried to use the waiver as a pressure point to keep Smith at bama. Smith was already gone. Had Saban signed the waiver(which coaches do for schools they arent playing against quite often) there would have never been anything said in the media.

The NCAA/ SEC rules are written to protect student athletes. Saban tried to use those rules to protect his football team, not Smith. That's why the SEC ruled in Smiths favor. So yes Saban is a giant arse.
