I think from some statements made by Saban recently this particular group of players contained some individuals that they felt like were not able to coach to be the best they could be. I would not speculate who those might be. I suspect the portal and NIL is going to be a breeding ground for uncoachable players all over college. My guess is every team is going to have some, but if you have too many you get teams that under perform. Since the powers that be say we did not have a top 4 team this year I would have to assume with our historical recruiting rankings that we have too many players who are not playing their best ball. Some of that might be our fault, as in the coaches. some of it might be players fault for thinking money and freedom was going to somehow make them a better football player. So I expect more players, even starters hitting the road. Saban may have a handle on this and have already been seeking out players who are more coachable, or this whole NIL portal thing may have made it a total crap shoot and he's just going to keep trying and hoping for better luck with future players. It's also possible that Saban's famous process is simply not going to work in a pro football setting, which we have a hybrid of now. I'm curious how the Michigan and TCU teams break down in NIL money and recruiting ranking vs Alabama and Georgia. Is finding the right mix of NIL talent and hard core rank and file football junkies the key?
