BROKEN System ATTACKS Alabama! | Alabama Football NEWS | The All-American Report

[@thomaslang8236]

Needs to be 70,000 dollar cap nil. Portal needs to be one week a year

[@scottzenger2019]

Should, ask former Alabama players in the NFL. That are making millions. Give, back a little

[@AK-sq1jl]

I'm sure they do.

[@AK-sq1jl]

​@bamabob99 I heard that too but he also said he's only asking fans to give what they can and if they are able too so he shouldn't have lost you with that and plus nobody's forcing you to do it obviously but it's just a reality that if more fans than not are stubborn about it then Alabama is going to fall off. If you're OK with that then cool. It's not life or death. I wanna win though.

[@SS11660]

They could give equivalent of 1 sports car in their garage. ​@@bamabob99

[@AK-sq1jl]

​@@bamabob99Ok if you're just too poor that's fine. Know this though, you could just make a 1 time donation of $10 and do it yearly. With an estimated 3.4 million fans worldwide if everyone of us donated $10 a year that would be $34 million of NIL money every season which is more than enough. Just something to think about and honestly if you can't even afford that I'd get off of KZbin and go work but that's just me.

[@eddiemcconnell-ds1dw]

If you don’t ask you will never receive . Good job by Greg .. TRT !!!

[@jimmysexton4201]

Exactly why NIL should be individual endorsement based!! You build your brand and then you receive endorsements as your income!! It should never be pay for play or revenue sharing!! If a player is elite and gains fame he can receive millions in endorsements!!!

[@jwilli850]

We need to do like Ohio State and get the Bama NFL players to form a collective, and start their own fund

[@thomaslang8236]

Nil and portal needs to be fixed

[@eddiemcconnell-ds1dw]

Surely everyone knows that under current rules the University cannot contribute to NIL ? Am I wrong ?

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

Regulations needs to be put in place portal window close sooner and no dam tampering if you do you go on sanctions limit players that'll 🛑alot of this mess

[@RonTDB]

Well hopefully congress is working on a bill to place a cap on what a player can be payed, like the NFL and maybe some other guidelines.

[@lexerdaniel4843]

Of all the things they need to address, restricting the pay of college athletes is at the bottom of the list.

[@gelato3299]

Schools that are not paying high school players that much they would rather cherry pick your roster

[@jadogg6784]

I grew up in Memphis where the hell is all this money in Oxford coming from?

[@zachlogan2058]

Same. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were leveraging debt for loans, hoping the revenue generated by a top tier football team can pay it back.

[@SS11660]

The people who criticize the most give the least .

[@SS11660]

The more money you have the better players you get. Reality

[@charlessteadman2518]

My hunch is Greg Byrne knows more about the situation than Mike.

[@thuhaze5946]

People don’t have money to spare this day and time. I think they should be payed on there performance, and a cap placed on teams.

[@SS11660]

If every fan gave $ 25

[@AV1611radio]

It doesn't matter that Albama doesn't have a bunch of Billionares as graduates; Alabama has made billions over the years from college football. They have enough NIL money, folks.

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

And Ole Miss haven't even 👃🏾a SEC Championship where's all their💰coming from we as BAMA should have way more than em

[@SS11660]

Mike made money by being a football player and a bama player. Give some back to the program that you benefitted from ! !

[@toddtipton2857]

I feel ya Mike! It’s disgusting in it’s present form!!

[@Pierre11907]

Mick, you’re right on…keep it up. Men’s Basketball is a huge money maker, as is Men’s Football, who else.

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

SABAN should put in the NIL that top players can get a Mercedes since he owns his own in Tuscaloosa

[@TheMagicman4444]

LOL What a stupid comment. Saban is loving seeing Bama struggle.

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

Do like the NFL their league 💰goes⬆️every year and limit universities on how many players can leave and how many players can be added that'll change players mind and if you transfer you can't within the league and you have to sit a year

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

Alot of other universities squad will get dismantled if the NIL continues 👀@Marshall and Remember The Pony Express SMU was down for years they just got back⬆️with a weak schedule

[@PatrickTrotter-q2t]

This shit’s getting old. Can we just talk about Alabama football or something that actually has meaning or purpose. Speculating about NIL. Yes the players are prima donnas and want to get paid and then they get NIL money for whatever advertisements or promos they get they still want more money and then they want more playing times and they want this that this is why Saban got out of football. He’s a smart man still getting paid $500,000 from Bama for not doing a damn thing. He’s getting paid by ESPN. That dude is live in the life! Laughing all the way to the bank. It’s the bullshit that we’re dealing with now. College football is a mess because of these Primadonna kids who think the $400,000 scholarship they get ain’t shit. Well, if you want an eye on money you get all this other money then you don’t get a scholarship because all the other sports and all these other kids they can’t afford to go to school and don’t get NIO money like you do need a scholarship so there you go.

[@brentthompson9508]

Sorry I’d rather go 0-12 with a bunch of guys that care about Alabama. I realize that’s not the most popular take but I ain’t contributing to these pampered babies.

[@joesmith-g4d]

That is about the most disingenuous statement I have heard online in a very long time. Alabama has had a structure in place to pay players since Bryant coached. Saban inherited a great system and advantage. Stop whining now that everyone is equal. That has left Alabama scrambling....

[@chrislevister5659]

Yes let’s not do that tf😂

[@cmcoleman66]

I’m sorry not one of these kids worth 6 figures when the only thing they have done is play high school football haven’t proven one damn thing in college, then give em that money and the jump in the portal to get paid more… CONTRACTS just like the COACHES!!!!!!

[@ECReeves]

Micks views on women sports isn’t an opinion it’s just the facts the target audience for women sports don’t watch sports

[@eddiewesley1093]

We are in the NIL era of college football. If you wanna play with the big boys, you gotta PAY!!

[@Pierre11907]

Title IX has slowly been eating away at college athletics. Now NIL is putting nails in the coffin. Then, add the pressure of the economy.

[@lexerdaniel4843]

Ok, INCEL.

[@jimmcewen9351]

In 2009 Bama football revenue was over 100 million, if Byrne was an elected position he’d be out of a job. They don’t need more money from fans

[@lexerdaniel4843]

He’s asking fans to join the collective; that’s all. Why? Because most people think collectives are only for big money boosters, and it’s not. It’s for everyone. That’s part of the job. He’s not garnishing your wages, buddy.

[@transfersRcheeks]

revenue is mutch different than Net. I get it tho. I think the killer is that 100 million pays for all other sports that lose money...chess, water polo, debate team etc etc

[@ChuckBaker-vt8je]

I will not give money so 17-22 year old kids can be millionaire's, a brick will be 20 💲💲💲 . It's bull crap 💩💩💩💩

[@eddiewesley1093]

If we had a damn state lottery, problem solved

[@ChuckBaker-vt8je]

Why don't we give them name brand ice cream that will help 😡

[@gary1488]

Screw the women’s basketball team over to pay mbakwe? Thats just crazy

[@eddiewesley1093]

Hey Greg!! This crap has been going on now for a few years. You should have already had a plan in place for NIL.

[@jm12green31]

Haha Mick was all excited about the tweet and Mike just like me said hell no. We don't need to do that everybody understands yay Alabama and donating money. It just made us look weak and Petty

[@cmcoleman66]

GREED

[@ChrisWilliams-kq9qq]

Greg Byrne needs to come out as a liberal far left Democrat and get George Soros to fund the Alabama football program every player on that team will have a million dollars before daylight tomorrow

[@lexerdaniel4843]

I can’t listen to more whining about NIL. It’s state law; get over it.

[@ECReeves]

Yall should give to charity not a football program. This world is so disgusting

[@wknight5595]

So Mick, what exactly are we being asked to "pay for"? To watch the highest paid player throw an INT then slowing down and sliding to watch the INT walk into the enzone?💩💩💩 Simply because he's to selfish and scared to even attempt a tackle? 🍼🩰👗
