The Latest Breaking News from Alabama

The Jackson State coach and NFL legend appeared on the I AM ATHLETE podcast to address the legendary Alabama coach.

Alabama’s Nick Saban accuses Texas A&M of buying players through NILs, and Aggies coach Jimbo Fisher doesn’t like it one bit.

They must be scripting this stuff, right?

The Alabama coach clarified that his comments came from concern about NIL in general.

The Alabama coach: "There’s nothing illegal about doing this. It’s the system. That’s the issue I have."

While speaking at an event in Birmingham, Alabama, Crimson Tide coach Saban said some schools, including Texas A&M, were spending “tons of money to get players.”

The rant from the Texas A&M coach was sparked by Nick Saban, but the emotion behind the response has been building for months.

The Aggies’ athletic director has his own pointed reaction to what’s transpired in the SEC.
