After Alabama coach Nick Saban suggested that every player on SEC West rival Texas A&M was “bought” through NIL deals, the Aggies’ leadership team told the SEC they should consider suspending or fining the Crimson Tide coach for his comments, according to On3’s Andy Wittry.
Through an open records request, On3 obtained an email from Texas A&M school president Katherine Banks and director of athletics Ross Bjork that was sent to SEC commissioner Greg Sankey on May 19. That email suggested that Saban should be suspended or fined for his accusations.
“We write to express Texas A&M University’s disappointment and outrage at the recent statements made by Alabama University Head Football Coach Nick Saban that ‘A&M bought every player on their team-made a deal for Name, Image, Likeness,’” the email stated.
