Nick Saban on ABC about Toledo CB Quinyon Mitchell: "He was our No. 1 guy in the portal last year to try to get him to come out of the portal, and he would never get in the portal."

This is the same guy that went to congress crying about NIL and how it was bad for college football, but yet he is openly cheating and breaking the rules.

Saban exact words at the draft tonight!

So Bama fans, you still think Saban didn’t break the rules and the NCAA allowed it and looked the other way?

This has nothing to do with Tony Vitello. Please do better.

Ofcourse he's a cheater. The only other cheater nearly as good is Kirby. Not only is Saban a cheater but he loves to broadcast it somewhat indirectly because he's smug and knows no one will do anything about it. Many checks were written and the right people were paid off time and time again.

One of these 2 things has to be true...

...either Saban cheated...

...or...

...kids all over America grow up desperately want to go to a joke academic institution in one of the most depressing areas of the country.

No one is shocked by this.

The NCAA will punish James Madison to make an example

Do we really want to go down this road? You got spanked again year after year by the best of all time. Live with it.

There are so many legitimate ways to let players know where they are needed and they all know hoe to communicate.

Guys are jumping into the portal and they have "no contact" tags on their big jump. They know where they are going BEFORE they get in. How did that happen, Sherlock?

Sounds like Saban is saying that Alabama would have liked to have gotten this player out of the portal if he had ever entered the portal. He never entered, so they couldn’t.

Not sure how that is tampering. They can scout players from other teams all they want.

Seems like others agree with my assessment of Saban’s comment:

You are making your own assumptions. All he is saying is that he was someone they identified as someone they wanted to get out of the transfer portal, but he never went into the transfer portal to get him.

Otherwise, he would have said they couldn't get him to transfer. The only reason you want to get them into the transfer portal is so you can contact them.

How is that cheating?

What are the rules anyway?

He pushed to get a guy to transfer? Sounds normal in todays new landscape…

Saban built his career off cheating.

Reading comprehension isn't your strong point. Nowhere in that statement is an admission to tampering, cheating, or anything else.

You know those threads on movie message boards, that talk about who the perfect actor would be for a particular role?

By your logic, those threads are basically attempts at contacting those actors.
