Re: Waiting game ends: Fanney joins Lions
Thanks for posting. Good luck, Brandon and congrats on your degree from the Capstone. | Quote: |  | | | Fanney, who graduated from Alabama on Saturday, said he met with Saban several times since the spring to discuss his future.
"It was just a difference of opinion with me and coach," he said. "It was nothing bad, but we both felt like it would be best for me to transfer to another school. He talked about coach Bowden and what kind of school UNA was. He said I would still have NFL scouts looking at me here. Coach Saban is a heck of a coach and we parted on good terms." | | | | |
