Nick Saban EXPOSES HIMSELF on ESPN With Mississippi State Kamario Taylor Comments | Don't @ Me w/ Dan Dakich
Dan exposes the massive hypocrisy surrounding former Alabama head coach Nick Saban as college football's NIL and transfer portal chaos reaches a boiling point. While broadcasting live from ESPN’s College GameDay inside Neyland Stadium, Nick Saban openly admitted that if he were still coaching, he would be trying to convince Mississippi State star quarterback and Heisman contender Kamario Taylor to enter the transfer portal. The blatant double standard? Saban has spent months lobbying Congress to fix the "broken" college sports model, appearing in national ads to promote the Protect College Sports Act—which just passed in the U.S. Senate late last night. Dan Dakich shreds the elite coaches and administrators who built dynasties by exploiting every system loophole imaginable, only to turn around and beg lawmakers for federal regulations the second the rules apply to everyone else.

Clark finished with 27 points, 15 assists and seven rebounds before fouling out with 2:45 remaining in the fourth quarter and the Fever leading 92-83. Clark become the first player in WNBA history to score at least 25 points and record 15 assists in a game (regular season or playoffs).
Jackie Young led the Aces with 31 points. Las Vegas' A'Ja Wilson, who scored 22, received a technical foul in the fourth quarter for an interaction with a fan.
Facing elimination in Game 2 against the defending champion Las Vegas Aces, Clark put on a clinic, leading a wild turnaround after a second-quarter technical foul to give Indiana a big lead at the break.
