DALLAS — Nick Saban’s announcement at the annual SEC meetings that “I have no problem with Jimbo” didn’t resolve much Tuesday since it was the Alabama coach who initiated the fight two weeks ago, saying Texas A&M bought its entire recruiting class and that the Crimson Tide had not bought a single player.
Now Saban tells us that he never said buying was wrong.
When the Aggies’ Jimbo Fisher speaks Thursday, we will learn whether or not these fabulously rich coaches have at least put the public portion of their feud behind them. I suspect, given the opportunity to take the high road after Saban made himself look silly with his muted apology, Fisher will ride off into the sunset on that path. Of course, Fisher already called Saban a narcissist and said, “Go dig into his past, you can find out what he does and how he does it. It’s despicable.”
