Nick Saban’s “mediocre people don’t like high achievers” quote has shown how true it is the last 24 hours or so.

[The Millers’ Edge @TheMillersEdge]

People really believe Coach Saban had to throw money around to get top recruits. Being developed by the best, competing for national championships every year, and all the NFL draft picks was the selling point. The dynasty spoke for itself. Was a no brainer once I got my offer 😂

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@BSB_Wolverine Brandon, his advantage was outworking your ass and using rings and NFL draft numbers to recruit. It just took this long for the B10 to get their shit together

[Sidelines - Bama @SSN_Alabama]

So everyone on this app is performatively butthurt regarding Saban’s comments today on the NIL landscape but the acting job stopped when Cignetti said the same exact thing just days ago?

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@TheRealCruzOx Truly is amazing to me the sheer # of people that don't want to admit that Saban just out worked and out recruited your ass and used the NFL development as fuel to keep it going every year.

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@ClintRLamb He outworked other SEC coaches on that 2008 class so bad that Tuberville and the other coaches had to get the Saban rule passed bc he made them look so bad. They wanted to golf in the spring, Saban wanted to get out and recruit.

There might be no better example of everyone's anti-SEC bias and fatigue than this Texas-Texas Tech shit.

For a decade people complained about SEC teams not scheduling hard enough, not playing enough conference games, not going up north of the Mason Dixon line, blah blah f'ing blah.

Texas makes a schedule with 9 conference games, 8 preseason Top 25 teams, and a non-con vs Ohio State.

And, somehow they're getting bullied online for not scheduling a HYPOTHETICAL game that would be a 9th ranked opponent, and 5th CFP team from a year ago, who plays 0 Top 25 teams this whole season.

Y'all are mad at them for calling out bad scheduling, making their schedule arguably the toughest in CFB bc a WWE promoter told y'all to be haha.

Do you see how crazy that is?

You're mad at the wrong program idiots.

[Graham Coffey @GrahamCoffeyDC]

Petitti said the Big Ten would agree to a 16-team CFP if the SEC played 9 league games.

The SEC did. Pettiti moved the goalposts and refused to match the SEC’s rule on playing 10 P4 teams.

He’s fighting a proxy war on Fox’s behalf. Nothing he says should be taken seriously.

[Chris Low @Clowfb]

This is well done by @ESPN_BillC, and for the record, I no longer draw a paycheck from ESPN. So no shilling on my part for the WWL. My continued concern with 24 is the drastic jump from 12 to 24 in one year’s time. Bound to be hidden issues. Let’s try 16 first and then reassess.

[Brooks Austin @BrooksAustinBA]

We've gone from: "We need a cap. Let's set it at 20.5m annually. Anything more than that has to be legit and pass through the College Sports Commission."

But teams promised contracts to their players worth north of $45m and now can't legitimize those deals and are now calling for a re-writing of the rules to accommodate their ill-spending.

[Bill Connelly @ESPN_BillC]

Any time I find myself pushing against what might be perceived as progress, I test myself a little bit. Am I right, or am I Old Man Yelling at Cloud?

Considering how Rivalry Week would've played out with a 24-teamer last year, I don't think I'm yelling at clouds just yet.

[Bill Connelly @ESPN_BillC]

A 24-team CFP is the AI of CFB: We didn't ask for it, and we're told it's inevitable despite huge unknowns.

I wrote about the impact of expansion and ditching conference title games. We don't have to do this! Four rounds and Flex Weeks: the way forward.

@dannykanell This doesn't make the point that you think it makes

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@AriWasserman Maybe it's time for the NFL to get off their asses and help

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@JoshPateCFB Oh that's funny

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@danorlovsky7 Welcome to the good life

[Parker Seymour 🥋 @cmore3295]

@JoshPateCFB What are some underrated assistant or coordinator hires that we need to keep our eyes on?

@ClintRLamb Cake's been in the oven for 5 minutes guys

Nate Oats on UNC job: "I'm not a guy that's always trying to jump around ... I love Alabama. My girls love Alabama. ... [Alabama] is doing everything we can to make sure we've got a competitive program. As long as we're able to compete to win championships here ... I'd love to be the coach to bring us our first national championship.

"To me, there's absolutely no reason to leave here. ... I'm not a guy that's looking to get out of here any time soon."
