Skull Session: Gene Smith talks separating FBS from the NCAA, Gee Scott Jr. discusses befriending a homeless man, Nick Saban goes off on teams 'buying' players, and more.
Word of the Day:One thing I love and respect about Gene Smith is that he is absolutely completely unafraid to say some wild shit in any press conference or media availability he does.
When the vast, vast majority of people in similar positions take to the podium or sit down for an interview, their goal is to say as many words with as little substance as possible. But that ain't Gene's game. He's going to say what he wants to say for a purpose – even if that purpose is just to get folks talking and stir the pot. Just like he did when he just casually dropped the"I think that maybe the FBS should split off from the NCAA"“When I did that first interview with CFP and 130 and the FBS being separate, I wanted to put it out there so people would begin to talk about it,” Smith said this week.
“So anyway, we’ve got to do something different. That’s for doggone sure. Because the model that we’ve had for whatever the case has been , it’s not going to work. We have 358 Division I schools. God bless it. We’re different than a lot of them. That recognition has to be accounted for. And I love the basketball tournament. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great. But those schools who have committed the 85 scholarships and more, in the FBS in football underneath the CFP umbrella, are different.
“We didn’t buy one player. Aight? But I don’t know if we’re going to be able to sustain that in the future, because more and more people are doing it. It’s tough.”More from Saban tonight: These guys from Miami that are going to play basketball there for $400,000. Thats in the newspaper! The guy tells you how hes doing it! But the NCAA cant enforce their rules because its not against the law, and thats an issue, thats a problem.
