“All we can do is that we can make each state at the same level [for NIL money]… Now, among that, we have to find some rules for transfer portals and possible contracts for players, all things that make university football the greatest sport in history. We do not want to become minor leagues sports. We can do things, we just have to happen, “he told 109.9 the game in Tuscaloosa on Wednesday.
However, Tuberville blamed the Democrats for the continuous whirlwind that is the current atmosphere of university sports.
“I think we can put it on the floor, the problem is to overcome a Democratic group that really does not want to see anything to see this country better. They do not care about university sport or education, they care about the power they control in this country. It is a difficult path to do so, but if someone can do it, it is president Trump and, with luck, we can have some discussion so that he feels on the right path to help university sports,” he said.

Tuberville also said that female sports and transgender inclusion will be at the forefront of the discussion.
“There is nothing more important than female sports, female athletics, and stopped the nonsense of biological men and children in women's sports … We have to save the title IX, we have to save the sports of women, and President Trump is the one who will maintain and fight for women. He does it, he understands it, and that will be in our complete discussion about Nil. They include female sports. “
Tuberville also believes that if this current landscape continues, “you will start losing fans.”
