No Excuses? Alabama, AJ McCarron showing that standard no longer exists for Crimson Tide

For a program that had (and maybe still has) "No Excuses" plastered outside of its locker room, there have been a lot of excuses coming out of Tuscaloosa following Alabama's 31-17 upset loss to Florida State on Saturday in Tallahassee.

The latest came from former Crimson Tide quarterback AJ McCarron.

"You look at these other teams that have $40-50 million in NIL," he said. "Alabama -- and I know this for a fact, talking to multiple people in the program -- Alabama has less than $20 million in their NIL."

Where to even start with that?
