So basically, Nick Saban gives money to a gay bashing, women hating, hate group.

No idea if there are recruiting reasons for this but props to Saban. Memphis is my home and needs all the help it can get

Part of the $415,000 Nick's Kids donated to charities. Over $2M since he's been at Bama to local charities.
So this is his secret behind his highly ranked recruiting. He calls it "Nick's Kids?" Ingenious!!!

The devil gives money to the church all of the time. Turns legitimate pastors into yacht loving coke heads.

Anyone heard of Jimmy Swaggart?

It's just one many organizations that get donations from Nick's Kids every year. This thread will be full of snide comments and haters, I'm sure. Just as the OP intended.

You're pathetic. I thought it was a good deed by Nick, and not once flamed him for donating some money. By all means, continue to assume untrue occurrences.

Funneling money to recruits through an underprivileged youth program, then making it public and contacting the press about it. Genius.

He's had the same organization since he was at Michigan State. That includes while he was in Baton Rouge. And you call yourself a LSU fan.

What didn't Bammer learn about Memphis recruits the last time they spread some $$$ around there?

This was Coach O's way of recruiting in Mississippi, giving money to the influential black churchs in the state, as it was NCAA legal. And a way to get his big foot into the doors of recruits. As to whether Little Nickie is doing this for the same reasons, no one knows. But according to at least one sports agent, Little Nickie does cheat (sarcastic comment). He cann't possibly be all bad, then again.............
