Exactly. The whole LANK thing and it's members, led by Milroe, were a cancer on the team, both Saban's last year and this past first year for Deboer. The inmates ran the asylum. They felt there was strength and the ability to control situations, in numbers, and they were proven correct. If I was Deboer, I'd make sure that the numbers were whittled down to the point where I as the coach could fully control the team and every player on it. Last two years, it was a "mind over matter" situation. The players didnt mind, because the coaches no longer mattered. NIL and the transfer portal are the two worst things to ever happen to college football.
