A lot of people say NIL “exposed” Alabama, how much truth do you say there is to that idea?

It exposed the entire SEC. Redneck car dealership owners can't compare to Midwest billionaire alumni.


It was all good when the SEC could simply pay players under the table and the NCAA didn't do shyt.

The heyday for college football is over with.

Now everybody is getting paid, it's going to turn into the NBA.

Them boys don't have nothing to work for when they get to college now. They made it.

Players are going to turn into Ben Simmons.

My question is why weren't other schools doing that?

NIL ain’t the end all be all and it isn’t lifelong money so they def have something to work and play for. Until they touch at least $20 million there’s a lot more to be had

 

[FaTaL]

Everytime they lose people say they can’t compete in the “NIL” era because it has “leveled the playing field”

They used to have nfl players as backup players on their dline, those guys are starting elsewhere now

 

[Max Power]

It's a lazy take.

Sabin left for a reason. He didn't want this humbling

This is stupid.
There is no reason they can't do what makes them the most money and brings them the most joy.
Soccer, basketball, football, baseball, water polo, track and field, tennis, golf, and etc.
There is no reason for the false choice that football needs to be ignored for soccer, when they could change their life in college.
Underwood has 10mil today for playing college football alone.
That is a good thing.

Saban was an NFL coach with 5-star players at every position and a crazy depth chart. A big reason why they were winning so much besides having more talent was because Saban is actually a good coach who ran from the NFL when times got hard. He should have been coaching in the NFL but he pussied out

They were, these hot takes are full of shyt

Bama was a fast track to the league, thats the biggest reason they could always get top recruits

So the BIG 10/12 weren't paying players? Oregon and USC weren't paying players pre NIL?
