Texas A&M posted the best recruiting class of all-time in the 2022 cycle, which turned many heads to say the least. Outside of the 2019 class when they finished fourth, they haven’t even finished in the top five in the 21st century! However, the new name image and likeness (NIL) deals have completely changed the game.
At an event with local business leaders in Birmingham Wednesday night, Alabama Head Coach Nick Saban took a couple shots at Jimbo Fisher and his Aggies.
Last season, 25 Alabama players earned NIL revenue that came out to about $3 million total, and added that the Tide went about it “the right way.”
Saban’s comments have spread like wildfire overnight. Now, other head coaches are responding via Twitter or press conferences.
