A player transferred from Miami (OH) to Alabama, and someone isn't happy about it.

Alabama Kicker Graham Nicholson kicks a field goal at Mal. M. Moore Athletic Facility in Tuscaloosa, Alabama on Wednesday, Jul 31, 2024. Photo by Kent GidleyChuck Martin, aggrieved football coach of Miami , wants everyone to know that Alabama “stole” his award-winning field goal kicker.and Martin is making a strong case for himself to be included on the wrong side of the scoreboard

People should be happy for Nicholson, but Martin is apparently a hater. In Martin’s eyes, Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer is a thief and Nicholson is a traitor. It’s such a bad look for the coach of Miami that I’ll be surprised if he remains at the FBS level for much longer. “Like, no, Alabama stole our kicker. They illegally recruited our kicker and stole him from us and that’s a fact. We act like it’s not. We live in this la-la world, like ‘Hey, let’s not talk...’ I don’t know why. Everybody knows what’s going on.”

Beginning in 2025, athletic departments can begin sharing revenue with players. Maybe that will be the mechanism that helps settle the sport. Who knows at this point? Something tells me that the marketplace will adjust and the arms race will just transition down a different path. “He entered the portal and we reached out to him, so that’s how it goes, right?” DeBoer said. “We did everything that we were supposed to.”

In the movie, actor Daniel Day-Lewis plays Daniel Plainview, an oil prospector turned oil tycoon who is overcome by his own ambition. Like college football, the movie is a classic American epic.
