Justin Thomas has entered the fray.
The PGA Championship winner, fresh new off lifting the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday stuck by his Alabama Crimson Tide roots in the ongoing Nick Saban-Jimbo Fisher feud.
When Thomas was questioned if he was observing Saban’s infamous 24-hour rule — transferring on from a earn or loss soon after a day — the 29-year-previous fired his shot.
“Yeah, I got a 24-hour rule,” Thomas advised Sirius XM. “I’m not certain what Jimbo Fisher’s rule is, but I guess he’s gotta gain some thing initially in advance of he figures out his guidelines.”
Thomas, who rallied from a 7-shot deficit in the remaining spherical at Southern Hills to gain his next PGA Championship, starred for two seasons in Tuscaloosa. He gained the Haskins award as the most fantastic collegiate golfer and was part of Alabama’s 2013 countrywide championship crew.
Fisher, the Texas A&M coach, fired back at comments made by Crimson Tide mentor and 7-time national champion Saban, who said the Aggies “bought every player” in a deep 2022 recruiting course.
“We never ever acquired anybody,” Fisher said. “No regulations are broken. Absolutely nothing was carried out improper. It’s a disgrace that you’ve bought to sit right here and protect 17-calendar year-aged kids and families and Texas A&M. Because we do points suitable. We’re constantly heading to do items suitable. We’re often heading to be below. We’re doing a heck of a work.”
Fisher’s A&M plan picked up several five-star recruits this spring as he seems to be to increase to his 2013 countrywide championship at Florida Point out.
Saban later on apologized and the coaches had been rebuked by the SEC.
For his element, Thomas does appear to be having a website page out of Saban’s e-book and not dwelling on his win for also very long — but probably a very little additional much more than 24 several hours.
“I am playing future 7 days, so we’ll get pleasure from it,” he claimed. “But at the similar time, we’re in the middle of a very, very huge extend in the year. So it is good to be in a position to shell out this time with my team but it’s again to work.”
