I agree however its like sabag has questionable pictures on everyone and they are afraid to expose him. I however would cherish it as I live in Alabama and would LOVE to personally witness the melt down in real time. Would be Glorious!!

I am waiting to see Norvell’s press conference where he complains about schools like Alabama and Texas A&M offering functioning toilets and thus violating the letter and spirit of NCAA rules

Pretty sure Norvell and the Free Shoes crew were playing the exact the same game as Jimbo and the midget when the nation's No. 1 recruit was committed to the Holes right up until signing day :ROFLMAO:

Some highlights...

If you had a son who was a five-star prospect, how big of a check would a middle-tier program need to write for him to turn his back on what Nick Saban is offering? That answer may be different for everyone, but it should, logically, be somewhere in the hundreds of thousands — if not millions — of dollars. You could logically make the argument that playing for Saban, without NIL deals or financial promises, is worth 500 grand.

That’s what Saban has organically built at Alabama. That’s his life’s work. That’s his legacy. That’s what makes him the GOAT.

Yes, we all view Alabama as a football dynasty in a sport starving for parity. We all know about Saban’s six national championships at Alabama and the fact that every prospect who signed with him and stayed for four years has won a national title. That is mind-boggling.

But to a recruit, Alabama is offering something no other school can, at least at the same level: the promise of accumulating generational wealth through the NFL Draft for those who stay. Alabama has developed five-star prospects into high NFL Draft picks at a much more impressive clip than any other program in America. If you’re a kid with NFL dreams — and the wealth that comes along with realizing those dreams — you play for Saban. That’s worth a lot of money.

Go ahead and complain, Nick. People may laugh, but you’ve earned the right to say what’s on your mind.

This will make you feel better: You’re still going to win in the end even if Alabama never participates in facilitating NIL deals to high school athletes. Why? Because what you have built is infallibly attractive. NIL is the bird in the hand, and some prospects will take it. But playing for Alabama is an investment. Smart people invest.

This is an evolutionary time in this sport. Reformed transfer rules and the introduction of NIL have created some turbulence.

But don’t worry, Nick, your life’s work is still intact.

If I had a five-star prospect for a son, I’d view your sales pitch as more attractive than a lump of cash to play somewhere worse for someone worse. And I’m not alone in that.

"Just sign with us first, and then we will pay. That way we can say other teams paid to sign players. But we didn't"

Like, didn't Bryce Young get paid a mil pretty early his freshman year? Or when he was the starter?

Bryce was not a starter. Saban bragging about his pay day and CBS called Saban GOAT for doing so. How the **** is Saban acting like a non starting player making a Mil is legit?

Ari as usual on Sabag’s Vienna sausage. Funny how he totally ignored mentioning the enormous elephant in the room, which everyone knows is Alabama’s infamous bag man game.
 
Does Saban realize you can't claim ignorance right? Just because payments went through boosters doesn't make him clean. Dude bought Tua and his family a house and moved them from Hawaii. Bama is about as dirty as it comes to paying players and when the coach says they didn't know it means a lack of institutional control. Hope they keep at each other and in the end bury themselves.

SMH, Clearly what's playing out and has been alleged went right over this moron's head. I could win 6 national championships at Alabama with the players they fraudulently brought in.

Mother was given a job as well. The move was paid for by boosters. The house was provided by a booster. Basically they lived rent free with high paying jobs in a boosters home. Tua got the car.

I was told that these boosters own tons of properties around Birmingham/ T Town. They put the players and parents of the players up these houes where they basically pay nothing in rent.

I would also venture to say they are providing housing for the Head Football Coach for Alabasters high school team as well, $800k house which doesnt get much in the 305 but is A LOT in the Alabaster community.

Since we've just had another coach all but confirm he's a witness to Saban's antics, ignorance is a non-event at this point.
