Nick Saban on Jim Harbaugh taking his team south for spring practice: “I don’t think that when people design the rules, they design to rules to take your team somewhere else and have spring practice during spring break.”

Dan Patrick: “Why don’t you just bring the team up to Ann Arbor or Columbus for a three-day weekend?”

Saban: “First of all most of our team would be shocked by the weather, so that’s not something that they would really [want]. But those are all nice places, I’ve spent a lot of time in the Big 10. I coached Ohio State, Michigan State and they’re a lot of good people there and we have a lot of good relationships there. But I’m not sure it’s something our players would look forward to and I don’t really know what the benefit of that would be.”
