Exactly what it was. It’s a different era and I hate it. College players were your peers. College football was awesome because these kids took the same classes. Went to the same parties and struggled to get by on McDonald’s and Keystone like we all did.Prime had an interesting take on it- Said Saban's comments were really directed at the Bama boosters, signaling them it's time to ante up or get left behind.
I didn't know A$M had alumni. I thought you had "former students."Exactly what it was. It’s a different era and I hate it. College players were your peers.

That said, A&M is set up perfectly for NIL. Hundreds of thousands of alumni all with money and wanting to win. And Saban knows it. He wants his recruiting advantage and NIL is a huge threat to that.
It isn't so much recruiting anymore, but money-whipping.Exactly what it was. It’s a different era and I hate it. College players were your peers.

Yes, a poop load of them.I didn't know A$M had alumni. I thought you had "former students."
Got any 8-tracks I can borrow?It isn't so much recruiting anymore, but money-whipping.
It is a different era, and one that is just unfolding. We haven't even begun to plumb the depths of sheer depravity that will ensue...
I, too, hate it. And I also mourn for what was.
Traded 'em all for reel-to-reel...Got any 8-tracks I can borrow?
You know, there was a time when I used to enjoy these spats.
My old secretary always laughed at the phrase "grown men." Her response to that was always, "Now there's an oxymoron if I ever heard one!"You know, there was a time when I used to enjoy these spats. But honestly, I just don't anymore. In the grand scheme of life, this just seems so petty and childish, 2 grown men acting this way...what a joke and waste of time.
They can’t legally profit from it while still in HS. Why Ewers signed with OSU instead of playing senior year HS. Doesn’t mean they can’t line up deals to begin the rake as soon as the whistle blows on their last HS game.Okay, I acknowledge that I don't know much about NIL, but the DMN said this morning that "High school football players in Texas cannot currently profit off their NIL and retain eligibility, unlike in other states." Has anyone told Jimbo Fisher? Or does membership in the SEC trump state law now? Is TCU able to offer NIL deals to HS recruits? I know NIL is not to be used for recruiting, but aggy seems to be doing just that. WTH?
If you take the money, and admit to taking the money, no eligible. Cue David Byrne karate chopping his own arm, going, “Same as it ever was!”Oh. Okay. So if you takes da NIL money you are no longer eligible for HS? Makes sense. Consider me enlightened.
