“Jermaine Burton was somebody we recruited out of high school that we thought was a really, really good player,” Saban said on Wednesday. “He had a fairly productive year at Georgia. They have a lot of good players at his position, and he had some production this year. But (he) probably might have seen a better opportunity (here) because we’re a little bit more wide-open and throw the ball more with a good quarterback. That may have been his intention.”
