to accuse someone else of doing what he’s done for over a decade


So he only started cheating when he came to Bama?

If he's some type of serial cheater wouldn't his cheating ways go back to LSU and MSU?

I have no idea if he's cheating at Bama
or not and I have no evidence to back it up but doesn't it make sense that stories about cheating at his 2 previous schools wouldn't emerge?

What did he tell the truth about? He sure as hell wasn’t telling the truth when he said Bama never paid for a player. That was a flat-out lie.


of course you have some evidence that points to that, otherwise you would be a common troll and given no credibility

And in response, Georgia hired Saban’s closest disciple



Not merely his closest disciple...one of his top recruiters.

There's no way in hell that Nick Saban can be dirty, yet Kirby Smart be clean.

The difference is, Kirby isn't crying like a little bitch that everyone is now allowed to legally do what he's been doing.

You don’t know if he’s cheating? He signed the #1 recruiting class like 10yrs in a row. Kids go for the money…isn’t that clear now? I mean crystal clear?

Just not to this amount. NIL happened and TAMU broke the bank to obtain the possibility of glory! With NIL came the reality of the pandora box that was opened. Now somebody is going to have to shut it some how.


NIL is endorsement money, I don’t know if you realize it but no professional sport inhibits endorsement money. With college being entirely about recruiting, with transfers being allowed, and boosters involved it was always going to be a shitshow of epic proportions.

Pandora’s Box was opened and there is no going back. The Supreme Court has said you cannot restrict endorsement money. It’s impossible for them to control this and there is no way for anyone to enforce anything. It’s a free for all thanks to recruiting and transfers.

Even if they began a salary for players, you can’t restrict endorsement money so this just means the baseline goes higher. College Sports has been forever changed and I don’t think many of you realize that. There is no going back because so long as recruiting is involved, this will be an issue.

The wealthy schools will eventually dominate the arena until the system dies. The Supreme Court even knew this would happen but they could find no legal argument to restrict it so they had to allow it.

He didn't like it at all when the truth was told about Bama's NIL program over the last 20 years. What gives him the right to try to stop the legal version when it makes the playing field more level? Parity? Not what he wants. He wants the status quo where Bama has an NFL team in Chargers.

I've copied and pasted my answer from the same question in another thread...

some of us are mature enough to know how the game is played and enjoy the occasions where our team is the benefactor.


ETA: The problem I have with this is that you have a coach who's been allowed preferential treatment for over a decade and now he publicly cries like a little bitch about someone else cheating? Really?

It's like watching LaBron James cry when a call doesn't go his way.

They did. A stupid “NIL” rule was written saying players could make a commercial for local restaurant or charge their a jersey signature.

aTm said F it, let’s bribe all the top recruits and pretend it’s for Bryan college station local ads.

That’s exactly what they did. And they are stupid enough to go on social media and brag about it

So you expected us to be the “Aw shucks” farmers and just go along. Yeah, no.

That ain’t happening. It ain’t like it used to be. We will spend whatever it takes to beat you.

So get used to either spending a hell of a lot more than you used to, or get used to losing.

“ Nobody here is saying tamu cheated, but surely you can see how they went beyond the spirit of NIL rules.”

Tell us what you can see. While you’re at it, can you see the nil activities at other schools too. Since you’re obviously magic, let’s here it.

How about Alabama when there was no NIL when Saban was hired> He didn't get good recruits for about 3 or 4 years then boom top recruits that was well more than Alabama average of 3 to 4 * recruits to 17 4* recruits and he wasn't even winning either. was averaging 5 to 6 wins a year that time.


Do you even follow college football? Saban won 7 games his first year and 12 his second year, and 14 his third.

His first real recruiting class was composite 3 that year and had 3 five stars and included Julio Jones, Mark Barron, Mark Ingram, Courtney Upshaw, and D’onte Hightower among others.

You are a truly special kind of ignorant.
