My point is that he is trying to make a distinction between his players' NIL money and collectives. He's claiming that Bama is completely separate from the NIL contracts, unlke others who are participating in the process and using it as an inducing part of the recruiting process.

He said that he encourages his athletes to get agents and negotiate as much NIL as they can, while the school and staff are completely decoupled from that NIL process. Thus, claiming that ALABAMA doesn't pay players != claiming that his players do not get NIL money. Is he telling the truth? Don't know? Have they been paying players under the table for years? I suspect so. But that is the NIL distinction in his CLAIMS that many people seem to be missing.

There’s no “suspect” to it. He’s developed it into a fine art and he’s way more deep into that process than any coach benefiting from collectives doing their thing. There’s a good reason he got into car dealerships.

I’m a doubter of the Whittingham conspiracy…he would’ve been an epic program changer tho in my thinking. I know the Interim Kippy is a popular revisionist program savior but I doubt Hamilton wouldn’t chosen anybody better a season later and have no faith that Kippy would’ve salvaged that 2010 class. Acceptable if the next hire is a homerun…resubmit negative prediction. We took a beating top to bottom because the whole root was rotten. That wasn’t going to change with just a HC.

Agree on Kippy. An interim never works out well for a whole season

Today is a big day for CFB. This represents the changing of the guard from the old "under the table" way to the NIL era. Everything has been leading up to this. There have been some significant NIL press releases/player pieces, there have been big signing day storylines. But the most successful coach of the previous era getting publicly tarred and feathered is symbolic in so many ways.

Bama boosters will be embarrassed and go all-in on NIL now. Everyone is going to go all in on NIL now. This is THE hottest topic in CFB now, and Saban getting drug for his comments across all media, with everyone having a (mostly negative) opinion, shows that everyone is moving on.

As a reminder, no better time to tell your friends and family that are talking about this today to sign up for OUR NIL program. We'll need it now that everyone is about to go to the mattresses. https://www.spyresports.com/volunteer-club-levels
