You know the SEC/NCAA will overrule and he'll be able to transfer anywhere he wants. All this does is delay the inevitable and make Saban look petty.


Making the kid earn it. He will thank him later. Don’t question the process.

Chris Black to Missouri. No issue.

Mo Smith to Georgia. Issue.

Brandon Kennedy to Tennessee. Issue.

I would no issue with him to Auburn. It looks and smells like tampering.

Saban is incredibly petty about several NCAA issues.

I really don't get it. He has all the success, but he sure does complain about the rules or how he wants them changed often.

He really is being a b here and even Alabama fans agree.

And he most certainly would have an issue with Auburn if he thought that was where Kennedy wanted to go.

If by petty you mean exercising his rights under the rules, then yes.

He won't give back the keys to the Charger.

He is afraid if he goes somewhere and plays then other players he lied to that are stuck on the team will want to transfer to rivals and play. He needs the talent advantage to win.

Jesus, Rabern. You may be a dumbass, but you're at least a consistent dumbass.

Regarding the topic at hand, tampering is bullshite. Everyone knows it. The SEC has rules about in-conference transfers because of it. Officially blocking this one is a matter of principle on three counts.

First because he's been illegally contacted. (And yes, he has. This always happens. Cole Cubelic said publicly last week he was called regularly in his dorm room by other SEC coaches trying to poach him. It happens everywhere, but especially at Alabama).

Second, because it forces the hand of the SEC to either a. enforce the rule, b. go through this every year, c. allow free transfer within the conference.

Third, because he signed a four year deal that Alabama has to honor by SEC rule. Not only that, but the staff has invested three years of training at the highest level available in CFB, and doesn't want to see that played out with two years of eligibility at a school they face every year.
