I’m very aware of what typically goes on and how  collectives use third party brokers to scout players and offer up options for positions of need to collectives then they work the back channels to get them in the portal and collect a % of the NIL package for their services. That’s nothing new and what’s been going on with the players in Tuscaloosa the past week goes way beyond that. Just one example is schools are offering Bama players $25k just to enter the portal. Again, that’s just one example and if stuff like that goes without any repercussions then you can expect the tampering to take off to levels way beyond what it is now.

And what Newberg alluded to and what should change is referring specifically to the concept of one school having their players open to be poached for 30 days while there is little to no staff in place to keep them and then no replacements available until after spring ball in April. That isn’t right and should be changed for all schools moving forward. It has nothing to do with Bama. It’s not fair to UW, Arizona, or any other school that will see coaching turnover once the portal closes.
