Here’s what he had to say about what influenced his decision per Austin Nivision of 247Sports:

“You know what I sat back and thought about?” Thibodeaux said. “I sat back and said what world do I want to be a part of? I said if I go to Alabama, I’m going to win national championships, literally,” Thibodeaux said. “But do I want to be a guy who’s known as a national championship winner or do I want to be a guy who’s known for being a part of the greatest organization in the world?
