Texas A&M athletic director Ross Bjork says Nick Saban’s comments Wednesday night regarding the Aggies’ recruiting practices violate SEC sportsmanship bylaws and he has been in discussion about the situation with commissioner Greg Sankey.
Bjork referred to Saban’s comments as a “personal attack” on his university and on his coach, Jimbo Fisher, a former Saban assistant, and believes the comments could trigger a reprimand from the league office. He has communicated with Sankey but declined to reveal details of their conversation. An SEC spokesman did not immediately reply to a request for comment. An Alabama spokesman also did not respond to comment.
