You just told me to go find Jimbo's presser, like that proves anything. Gee, an opposing coach said another coach is doing something. Well that sure is proof! Let's just throw the book at people because someone says so.It's not a secret...It's out there if you want to find it...You are a keen researcher and I am 100% confident that you will find it...Jimbo Fisher's presser responding to Tricky Nicky Saban crying about A&M buying recruits is out there too...The NCAA turned a blind eye...Same crap went on at USC under Pete Carroll...It is what it is...Same thing about ole Cousin Urban with the coed's down at Florida...That is why he got out of there...Heart problems my rear end...
Rumors are rumors, nothing more. This is the same crap we all whined about with Paterno... "trust us he's guilty" without evidence, and everyone bought into it.
Saban took over MSU who had just gone through sanctions. He also took over Alabama after they got hit with sanctions. He was not there when they were hit with sanctions
Well the interesting thing is that Tricky Nicky did nothing to dispute the claim...As a matter of fact he changed Tac and criticized the NIL system...Listen, you have a knack for finding the most remote information out there so I am sure if you want to you can find it...It was and is common knowledge...EVERY scholarship Bama player drove a brand new Dodge Charger...And yes he got there right after Bama got hit with sanctions...You really think they were gonna shut down a football program like Bama? They danced around and looked the other way while Tricky Nicky was paying off his players...It's the same thing as what is going down at Michigan...No chance they ever shut down the program no matter what nonsense they pull...You say you're a Bama alum...I am sure if you do even a little digging you will find it...I said the same thing years ago regarding the Cousin Urban situation with the coed...Funny thing happened a few years later he gets caught in a gin mill grabbing a coeds ass...Like I said it is all out there if you wanna find it...
@the-funeral-director you do know Alabama was in a lot of trouble even the goat Joe Paterno was against shutting down Alabama football and if I remember correctly he told the ncaa not to shut down the football program. I was in Alabama at the time and was reading it in the paper. It’s just not Alabama he turned around LSU and Michigan St both stunk and look at the man’s track record at all 3 schools, it’s unbelievable what he did.
He actually did a pretty good job in Miami for the very short time he was there.
As I said, I do not care to deal in rumors. You keep saying "it's around the internet" like that is some sort of proof. I don't care.Well the interesting thing is that Tricky Nicky did nothing to dispute the claim...As a matter of fact he changed Tac and criticized the NIL system...Listen, you have a knack for finding the most remote information out there so I am sure if you want to you can find it...It was and is common knowledge...EVERY scholarship Bama player drove a brand new Dodge Charger...And yes he got there right after Bama got hit with sanctions...You really think they were gonna shut down a football program like Bama?

Based on you logic of proof, Paterno was guilty too... because hey, it was on the internet, right? Must be true.
If he did it, fine. Whatever. I don't think the NCAA was hiding anything because some random coach at Michigan State, or LSU was winning games. He wasn't "Nick Saban" yet. He also wasn't "Nick Saban" at Alabama until 3 or 4 years later.
You want me to believe the NCAA was being selective, and sweeping everything he did under the rug for years before he won his championships at Alabama. Why would they? They didnt for Carroll, that's for sure.
