There is cheating and then there has been the level of purchasing players that Alabama has been allowed to get away with. It's a matter of scale.

Unless you're pretending that no one else besides Bama was cheating, and that's absurd.


Why do you think Saban came out so strongly against NIL? He even got in a public pissing match with Jimbo over it. I'll tell you why.

To use an analogy, because when you have set up the biggest, best, most efficient and well protected bootlegging operation in American the last thing on earth that you want is for booze to be legalized.

You got downvoted but there’s a lot of fans and former players who feel this way. In our attempt to modernize our offense Bama got away from being who they were. People spouting NIL and stuff are full of crap Bama is still bringing in top talent but Bama needs a come to Jesus about who they are and want to be. If that means going back to a 60/40 run to pass and mauling people then by all means do it. The defensive talent at Alabama last year was absolutely wasted. This should have easily been the best defense in college football hands down and it wasn’t even the best in the sec.


Put it this way… some of Shula’s good teams could have beaten this year’s Bama squad. I’ve watched a lot of good Bama teams come and go; I played juco baseball in Alabama in the early 2000s and saw up close the passion of the fan base so I know how much y’all dig your heels into a defensive stance concerning the team…but I sincerely think some of the less recruit-studded teams would beat this generations 5* all star teams. If I need to get specific with old players that would kick the shite out of these kids I can.

I mean I guess I just don't believe the NCAA or SEC have conspired to make sure Alabama is good.

Maybe he just doesn't like what it's doing to the game.

A lot of people hate NIL, most of them aren't coaches.
