The SEC commissioner agrees with Saban about this. In fact it’s a good bet that all SEC head coaches and administrators, except at 8&4feit, do agree.

“There are some concerning trends,” Southeastern Conference Commissioner Greg Sankey told Yahoo Finance. “We're not seeing name image and likeness activity — we're seeing just straight payments.

What do you bet he has been seeing straight payments for many years now, well before the dawn of NIL, and is just now mentioning it.

How anybody could not foresee this happening is beyond comprehension.

Dumbo and A&M broke the rules. He can scream and act insulted all he wants but everyone knows what went on there. All his whining and drunken posturing isn’t fooling anyone.

We need a commish like Mike Slive. He got everyone to stop snitching on each other.

When you get an interview as an athlete, its a straight payment. Nothing more here to see. Last season we had players making money off t shirt sales

As per usual, tRant runs with a bit of information and calls it the gospel

So these stupid mofos think it is going to be OK for everyone else to play the athletes other than the fans of the team they are playing for?

These athletes are worthless right now and the only reason anyone pays money to see them play is because of the school they play for.

No Auburn fan is going to buy a Bryce Young jersey. Or any other SEC team for that matter.

I can see why a coach would be frustrated if he’s forced into a bidding war for a recruit. That type of activity needs to be stopped.

Saban accomplished what he wanted. When he speaks people listen. It became the #1 trending topic on Twitter.

Unfortunately Jimbo became collateral damage. Saban used him. Now everyone's talking about it.

Mission accomplished for Saban.

Alabama has been cheating for decades, their fans are dumb enough to believe that high caliber athletes simply come there because of Nick Saban. They are as looney as Clemson fans when it comes to this

What do you call an NIL for cash deal without the name, the image, or likeness?

I don’t know who you’re a fan of but do you think they pay players?

Yes, everyone does to a degree. At least the ones who are competitive

Exactly. Shocking. Amazing this happened but at least the players won’t be starved overworked mistreated slaves.
