Alabama Player Arrested for Robbery
PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. - Alabama running back Ezzie Raulls Jr., and three companions were charged Friday with invading a motel room and robbing nine people at gunpoint to raise money for a friend's jail bond, police said.

Raulls, 19, and the three others were charged with armed robbery and armed burglary, a duty officer at the Bay County Jail said early Saturday.

Larry White, a spokesman for the university's athletic department, told The News Herald of Panama City that if Raulls is convicted of a felony, he will be taken off the Crimson Tide's roster.

White said Alabama coach Mike Price could not be reached for comment.

The other men arrested were Ronnell Johnson and Marcus Antonia Bailey, both 19 and from Tuscaloosa, Ala., and Gerald Rogers Jr., 21, of Suwanee, Ga.

The 5-foot-8, 210-pound Raulls did not play last season, but rushed for 1 yard on one carry during Alabama's spring game on March 29.

They tried to raise a guy's bail money via armed robbery?
Thought that one through pretty clearly, huh?
