He's their friend now. He marches with them. They have Covid and social justice and a turbulent time in history. Football is just a game to them. Then you take a trip to Tuscaloosa...
EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm drawing a parallel to another time in history. Im not shelling Jimmy for supporting his players nor making light of the issues of the day. I am suggesting that football doesn't seem to be of paramount importance to many in the program.
Nick Saban couldn't care less about any of it. He doesn't care about your ideals, your problems, any of it. There's one job and if you have an eye on anything but the ball, kindly see yourself out. If you stay and commit, there will be championships and big contracts in your future.
Sound familiar? It's like we're reliving the 60s and Jimmy is cast as Bump. Talented roster that just doesn't care. So what happens to those who stay?
