That won't happen. They may get a few more, but watch what will inevitably happen with TAMU and the exodus of recruits. They stacked too many guys at the same position and guys want to play and play early. You can get to the league and be a high pick at so many different schools now, but you need game tape to do it. And once Saban retires, that Bama allure WILL change. They may never go through what we did, but Saban is the main draw there right now.That's absurd. Rather than getting the top 25 players each year, Alabama will simply get the top 150 players each year. Yes, most will not play but they will be well compensated for sitting on the bench.
i disagree. players will want to play at some point regardless of getting paid. they would transfer after a year. most schools will be able to pay some NIL moneyThat's absurd.

It’s easy to forget this, but they did go through what we are from 95 until Saban came in 2007. Granted it was not 20 years and five bad hires, but jt is really not that difficult to make 2-3 successive bad hires and money/facilities does not automatically equal titles.That won't happen.

Can ABSOLUTELY see Emmert right now in a basement "bedroom" eating pb&j sandwiches that his mom cut the crusts from watching Finebaum on the SEC Network all day. Occasionally screams upstairs that he's out of Mountain Dew and Takis.The NCAA acted like a petulant child king for the last 50 years, spoiled rotten by greed and easy success. They refused to face the reality of adulthood and the imposition of the real world on their dealings. Instead of owning up and getting a real job they headed back to mom and dads house and went full murder-suicide on the sport.
title IX is a cap on scholarships as much as the NCAA is.That won't happen. They may get a few more, but watch what will inevitably happen with TAMU and the exodus of recruits.

I can picture him in that John Clayton commercial eating noodles listening to heavy metal music..Can ABSOLUTELY see Emmert right now in a basement "bedroom" eating pb&j sandwiches that his mom cut the crusts from watching Finebaum on the SEC Network all day.

Haha. With a ponytail. But I'm thinking it would probably be Jason Aldean or some **** instead of metal to match his wannabe good ol' SEC boy persona.I can picture him in that John Clayton commercial eating noodles listening to heavy metal music..
As I said, the final domino to fall after scholarship limits will be how long players can actually compete in college. If the salaries start to achieve NFL parity, you'll end up with an actual rival to the National Football League and some athletes staying with schools for 10 years.We can’t have it both ways at this point. The box has been opened.
If you want a free market for players and unlimited coaches and scholarships then there is no end to the money it will take to compete. There will be 6 schools with everything and everyone will get scraps. The college football I grew up loving is gone and won’t even look the same.
If you want something like what was around 10 years ago with some parity, a cap on payments to players, and a “level playing field” then you need the NCAA to govern this thing the way they should have been doing.
Ruiz isn’t going to be a cash cow for Miami forever. The fact is we can’t compete financially with schools that have the boosters and fan bases of Ohio St and Bama.
Enjoy this ride we are about to take because I’m not sure what this sport looks like in 5 years.
Hopefully they keep the enrollment and academic requirements. I'd love to see "Dr." or ", P.E." on the back of the jerseys.As I said, the final domino to fall after scholarship limits will be how long players can actually compete in college.
