Alabama coach Nick Saban says Texas A&M “bought’’ its talented 2022 recruiting class, leading Aggies coach Jimbo Fisher to call Saban “despicable,’’ causing Saban to respond with something along the lines of “am not” and … well, what did you expect? That college players finally getting paid for their talents would go well?
I’ve long been a proponent of “student-athletes” being compensated above board, but I’ve never been under the impression that it would be anything other than “Jurassic Park’’ when the money started flowing. You thought you were going to warm up the DNA from some T. rexes and their large, pointy, dripping teeth would behave?
