First-round NFL Draft pick from this year's class Jahmyr Gibbs has thrown shade at his former college coach, the legendary Nick Saban.
The long-time Alabama head coach, Saban has established himself as the greatest coach in the college game - winning seven National Championships, six with Alabama since he joined in 2007.
Like Bill Belichick though, he's not known to be an easy-going leader, is extremely demanding on his players with tough off-season and in-season training to remain in top shape.
And while it's brought results, it has been criticised by some in the past, with their starting running back from last season stating how relaxed the NFL is in comparison to his training with the Crimson Tide.
Speaking after mandatory minicamp, Gibbs said: "NFL practice is different from college. How, like, they approach the day. What they do in their spare time and their free time.
"Saban, he’s probably hitting every day, full pads in the heat for two hours. Here, we get good work in, but they don’t try to kill us."
Alabama has the third-most players from their school being drafted in the first round of the NFL Draft with 77 - behind only Ohio State and USC.
But no school has dominated quite like 'Bama, with six National Championships in the past 14 seasons and elite players coming and going seemingly every season.
Gibbs was one of the shocks of the first round after being selected with the 12th overall selection, with the Detroit Lions reportedly willing to take him at sixth overall after missing out on Devon Witherspoon. But they ended up trading down from their selection to take the running back six picks later.
That would have been a huge surprise to see him being taken at sixth when he would have gone above Bijan Robinson - a fellow running back who has been brandished as the best prospect at the position in a decade.
But it appears the Lions have a plan for how they'll use the dynamic offensive weapon, who has also proven to be a solid receiver.
He said: "I love how they’re using me. That’s something I’ve been used to throughout high school, when I was at (Georgia) Tech and when I was at 'Bama. So, I’m pretty used to being all around and learning different routes and concepts and stuff.
"This offense was already a really great offense. I think with me coming in, we can be even more dominant."
