As for being a SMU wanna be? If by that you mean having some semblance of admission standards, not just accepting anybody that walks off the street, producing successful, proud alumni that earn tons of money and will use that money to wield influence in college athletics?

The article is behind a paywall, but itâs worth the cost. Saban says the current system isnât sustainable and needs regulation. Heâs been talking to members of Congress and others about the problem. The NCAA President says they get continuous complaints from athletes that are convinced by third parties to enter the Portal on the promise of big NIL dollars, leave their scholarships, and find far less money and no scholarships at the end.
