Prior to facing Michigan for the Citrus Bowl, Alabama received good news last week.
Joshua McMillon, a senior at inside linebacker, was granted a sixth year of eligibility via the NCAA. After a serious knee injury kept him from playing this season, he earned a medical redshirt. While he has yet to accept it, Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide still pursued it. Should he take it, the Tide would have huge experience returning at weakside “Will” linebacker.
Along with that, last week (Saturday) was the 13th anniversary of the biggest fib ever told by Saban. He said that would not be the Alabama head coach on Dec.
