Jimbo Fisher didn’t soften his words when responding to Nick Saban’s comments, calling them “despicable” and the Alabama coach a “narcissist.”
“You can call me anything you want to call me, you don’t call me a cheat,” the Texas A&M coach said. “I don’t cheat. I don’t lie. I learned that when I was a kid, if you did, your old man would’ve slapped you upside the head. Maybe somebody should have slapped him.”
Saban said Wednesday that Texas A&M “bought every player on their team,” in reference to the program’s Name, Image and Likeness deals. Texas A&M finished the 2022 recruiting season edging out Alabama for the top spot, landing eight five-star recruits and 19 four-star recruits, per 247 Sports. Fisher strongly denied the accusation.
