WINNER! For unnecessary post of the day! (Mine is a close second.)Cruloc simply made a statement. It was speculation. It happens on chat boards. It is a pretty safe assumption that Coach Saban said SOMETHING that influenced Simpson to stay. You don’t have to assume that though, if you don’t want to. Which ever way you feel, you don’t have to belittle someone for thinking the opposite.Like what? Why do you and others want to get rumors started? There is no evidence whatsoever Saban "Said something" to Simpson to make him stay. I mean..Like what? Simpson has said he loves it at Alabama. He likes the school, and likes learning under Nick Saban. What is it you think Saban may have told him? He's going to start him in September? Not likely. So what, then? Some of Y'all crack me up trying to say, "Saban had to say something!" No he didn't!
