Alabama football coach Nick Saban says Texas A&M 'bought every player,' questions whether current NIL model is sustainable

He isn't the first coach to call out the Aggies by name. In February, Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin quipped, "Texas A&M was going to incur a luxury tax in how much they paid for their signing class."

All the pro leagues have salary caps. Maybe that's necessary for college as well. Alabama football coach Nick Saban says Texas A&M 'bought every player,'  2599972566

Also, the pro leagues have drafts to help the "have nots". The only thing that helps the "have nots" in college is schollie limits.

I guess Jimbo's defense rests at "we ain't done anything illegal."

Jimbo's not having it.  Guessing they won't exchange Christmas cards this year.

Jimbo Fisher blasts Nick Saban over NIL allegations: 'Some people think they're God'

"It's a shame that we have to do this," Fisher said. "It's really despicable. It's despicable that somebody can say something about somebody, more importantly 17-year-old kids. You're taking shots at 17-year-old kids and their families, that they broke state laws."

Fisher said Texas A&M never bought players.

"It's despicable that a reputable head coach can come out and say this when he doesn't get his way or things don't go his way," Fisher continued. "The narcissistic in him doesn't allow those things to happen. It's ridiculous, when he's not on top."

"Some people think they're God," Fisher said. "Go dig into how God did his deal. You might find out about a guy, a lot of things you don't want to know. We build him up to be this czar of football. Go dig into his past or anybody who has ever coached with him. You can find out anything you want to know about what he does and how he does it. It's despicable."

Meh, Plax got paid. Rogers and Ducket weren’t broke college kids. Jimbo ain’t lying.

The part I find most despicable is Jimbo saying somebody should’ve slapped Nick when he was a child. Huh? Might seem funny at first. Then you realize he’s advocating child abuse. Sorry, dude. No bueno.

Seemed a little odd for Jimbo to tell people to look into Saban's past (considering he worked for Saban).

And Saban isn't wrong. The language is strong, but A&M is "buying" players outside the original intent of NIL.

No going back now.

A long standing MSU football tradition going back to Duffy. Probably wasn't his money but he personally handed it out every Friday during the season. Seniors got paid first. Right in his office.

And not coincidentally, MSU football was a national powerhouse

I don't understand the anger from Jimbo. Saban didn't say he did anything illegal. Not sure why he's trying to deny what is already known. They didn't exactly try to hide it. $30 million is crazy though.

All that said; Hey Nick, pot calling, how's the kettle.

This has been an interesting game. I think Saban is going have some choice words for the center after back-t0-back false starts.

Nick (and Izzo) are not ready for the brave new world. Izzo has adapted, Nick needs to.
