So you are saying Bama football players are not getting paid something on the side right now?

Anybody who thinks their team has no impermissible benefits going to any of their players is a fool. Saban has no interest in getting any assistance from some idiot boosters trying to “help” by giving them out. Alabama doesn’t need to hand out Happy Meals full of cash, and they don’t need to give out cars. Saban knows the best way to cripple a program for a long time is to get nailed for recruiting violations, and if you think there is some widespread corruption where he either participates in or tolerates it, then you’re a fool too. Morons and bad coaches like Mike Dubose think they have to cheat, Saban doesn’t. Of course, if you have some real evidence that Alabama cheats, other than vague suspicions and pictures of players standing next to a Dodge Charger, I’m willing to reevaluate that.
