Jimbo Fisher calls Nick Saban 'narcissist' in emerging feud over NIL
The developing feud between Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher took another interesting twist on Thursday morning. Less than 24 hours after the Alabama coach accused the Aggies of “buying every player on their team,” Fisher came out swinging in a press conference set up specifically respond to the accusations.
Here’s what Fisher had to say.
“First, I want to say, it’s a shame that we have to do this,” said Fisher. “It’s really despicable. It’s despicable that somebody can say things about somebody, an organization, and more importantly 17-year old kids. You’re taking shots at 17-year old kids and their families. That they broke state laws, that they’re all money, that we bought every player on this group.

“We never bought anybody. No rules were broken. Nothing was done wrong. It was all – the way in which we do things, the ethics of how we do things. And these families, it’s despicable that a reputable head coach can come out and say this when he doesn’t get his way or things don’t go his way. The narcissist in him doesn’t allow those things to happen and it’s ridiculous when he’s not on top.”
