I knew from the beginning the folks in Tuscaloosa would not be happy with once every program in the country could openly and legally pay their players. So if true, can you really blame the Aggies for finding the best and most equitable way to do it?
Yes, having the "best damn college football team money can buy" has definitely taken on a new dimension.

F both of them. Saban acting like he signed his guys just because they love playing football and going to class in Alabama. And Jimbo has been ridiculously defensive going back to February about this year's signing class, but has never once denied that the class was completely paid for. There's no way that many 4-5 star players would otherwise choose to be surrounded by Aggies in College Station. And Jimbo is making all kinds of allegations and stirring the pot, but won't give specifics or details.

High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

Who cares, A&M will still just be .500 in conference again, just like almost every year for the last 20 years

Saban did not like getting beat on and off the field by fisher this year.
Fisher should just laugh at it. The press conference wasn’t needed.
.500 in conference and they’ll tear down the goal post in Lubbock.

Since college players are getting paid now, isn’t this now profootball? Just a different league.

You’d have to watch me real good catch me watching football. If you do it’s a late Saturday college game. I don’t schedule my life accordingly and will likely be half asleep or eating more than I’m watching.
The folks that live and die by “my team” need to find lives

It is a shame that they ruined the college game with money, money, and more money.
