Dude is pathologically obsessed with his clean public image and brand legacy.

Look Nick, we know about the bank and the private accounts. For 17 years no one had a better portfolio package deal than Bama presented privately to the parents. Players have talked, parents have talked. It is a dirty, dirty business that requires a clean, believable public image that is portrayed. The Bear Bryant way. A coach and a wife just trying to teach these 2 deeps of elite boys about life and the game. "Coachin em up" and "lovin on em." OF COURSE the sordid details should be forever kept private. Who met with the parents after you flew in and left?What would they say about 17 years of pay for play? Pushing your assistant coaches to the point of insanity, screaming at them on the headsets on the sidelines to make you look good as a winner.

It is just a mere coincidence that Saban left when the coach of Michigan left, for breaking the rules. Yes it also was only a coincidence that Croatian Belichick got caught cheating in the NFL - none of that filth rubbed off on Crystal Clean Croatian Nick. Nick is just a hard working son of a West Virginia coal miner who now just happens to have $100M+ net worth and a $700M owner of Dream Motor, and a private ESPN deal worth $50M. Nothing to see here.

Tell me a more obsessed person of their honorable legacy that Nick. I'll hang up and listen. You outright bought the 6 Bama championships, just like LSU did in 2003 while you were there and later in 2019 with COACH O, just like Georgia did recently, and just like other programs are trying to do now publicly instead of privately. You left because you don't want a fair play environment that loses money more than it makes money, and loses more than 3 games a year, your ridiculous ego cannot handle it, makes sense.

I don't understand the whole line of thinking they won because they cheated. They won because they cheated better than everyone else. It ain't like Michigan wasn't cheating, Ohio St, Ole Miss, Tenn, AU, State, ............. Buffalo.

Saban may be delusional that Alabama didn't cheat because he didn't pay anyone $ and maybe he didn't know someone was paying. Doubtful, but maybe. I doubt DM paid anyone or CML, but they I'm pretty sure they knew someone was.

I worked with a man who was a good friend with a State player during high school and college. It was during the mid sixties, they went to the campus post office. The player took an envelope out of his mail box, opened it and took out 2 $100 bills. The man asked the player who sent you that. He said I don’t know. I get it every month with no return address.

Scale this up with cash deposits to a private bank but much more than $200. That's been happening for years for players all over the nation.

He told boosters who to get. He's just trying to protect his "holier-than-thou" reputation that he built with the average ticket buying fans. They still believe players came to Alabama due to their reputation.

Everything rises and falls on leadership, and Saban had "it", whatever "it" is.

Saban is a 17ing liar! I know 3 of my friends who had sons that played for him, and they all received illegal money and gifts. Not to mention the whorehouse they ran for they players called slutwieler. (tutwieler hall) and this went on way before Satan became the coach. 17 him and BAMA!

Remember the ads of a few years ago that sold the spray stuff that allegedly covered male pattern baldness? They just showed the back of Saban's head - I think he uses that stuff, but it has to be special made in his chosen hair color.
