The Bama Boosters are to blame, all their walking money went to the starters. They should have followed dear leaders example and spread the wealth.

I’m so glad this wasn’t a tattoo issue. Heck they might not be able to play in a bowl game and lose scholarships. That would be devastating... I’m sure reinstatement is just around the corner because these boys were just goofing.
The SEC is no better...this is a huge business people. Money runs these programs.

They were four and five star recruits, so I guess they were talented. But they are obviously too stupid to be at Bama. It makes room for other talented players with better character. The responses of other players and our recent players who have graduated and gone to the NFL are scathing.

My take is that these thugs were using drugs and had no money for their munchies. It is baffling that these athletes would blow such a great opportunity. I expect there might be some other players have consequences from this as well.

Now that Ray Lewis has retired, there is an opening for ...

These guys should make it in the NFL, when they get out of jail.

I’ve heard of the “Red Tide” but these guys robbed like a “Black Tide”. (Look up “black tide” as an oceanic phenomena and fish-killer).

With these 4 losers and Javon Martin, Obama could have had a basketball team.

no assault and battery???

A general definition I saw of second deree robbery is robbery by force, but without a weapon. The nature of the force would probably be taken into account in the formal charges.

First degree robbery is with a weapon.
