on the defensive side of the ball seems to be a thing of the past. We used to get players that would straight up bust you in the mouth every freaking play and made the other team quit....just like Saban wanted. Now, I just don't see players on our team like this. Is this a reflection of the times we live in? Is it influenced by NIL? Or is it a characteristic that is just rare to find? I just don't see it. Players seem soft.
