Bama only $20M in NIL?

This is the future for bama. Buying suits and Dodge Chargers... giving a job to momma, that stuff isn't going to get talent anymore.

Many programs, including Tennessee, can outspend bama. Their run is over unless the rules change.

I don't buy it. I don't think they have 5-5 stars in this class with that amount of cash. I think this is AJ trying to inspire donors to up their donations for a big buyout.

Big time recruits would take less money to come play for Saban because he was best for their NFL prospects.

I don't think thats the full story. I think with a lot of these big time donors they work more off of promises of the money, rather than having 20/40/50 million just sitting in an NIL bank account ready to go.

Bama hasn't had to work at it, like other schools, mobilizing the money before. saban was good enough, and they had enough back doors to keep things decentralized. now with everything in the open they are going to have to consolidate their money.

they may never have 50 million, but they won't be some poverty program. like VF76, I think this is the call to up the war chest.

And the reason they STAYED was the noosehold programs had on player movement. That fell apart and Saban vamoosed.

I honestly don't understand why this new reality with Alabama is so difficult for some fans to accept. It's good news for us. It's crazy how hard some people fight against good news. 30 players transferred out of Alabama when Nick left and players they did not want to lose have transferred out every year since. It's a new world in college football. Most Bama fans have come to accept it already.
