Alabama Alum blasts Nick Saban for not injecting former players into program

Former Alabama wide receiver, Mike McCoy feels Nick Saban needs to inject more former Alabama players into the Crimson Tide football program.

McCoy played at Alabama from 2007 to 2009, and he played under Nick Saban during Saban’s first few years in Tuscaloosa. McCoy said he feels Alabama would benefit from having more former Tide players inside the program during an interview on “In My Own Words.”

“It starts up top,” McCoy said. “Coach Saban needs to shake some things up. He needs to bring in your former player. You better pay him. If you paying them boys a million dollars, you are going to need my times, you are going to have to pay me.
