CB Tony Brown from Beaumont one of the very top recruits in the Country was arrested before Spring Semester even started

He must be a good one. So if you were getting a football team together to play the way the game is played today and it's win at all cost mentality...rough, violent, high pain tolerance, and no respect or care for one's mental or physical well being...which would you rather have, inmates on death row at Huntsville or recent graduates of one of the local suburban high schools? That is what is wrong with the game and what it has become. Entertaining but dangerous and not for any well-rounded, smart student athletes.

That quite possibly sir is the most ignorant opinion I have ever seen on this Board and trust me there are a lot of ignorant opinions flying around.

No Ghost, that is called being a punk and an idiot - having no respect.

This makes me sick. Alabama failed this young student athlete: Saban failed, his older teammates failed, and the university itself failed. While I'm a first class, knock down drag out full time flag waving Bamer, I'm disgusted with this incident. His parents trusted the university community to watch over him, and it did not happen. He either went out and tied one on for the first time away from home (most of us did thIs, but we didn't get sprayed down with pepper spray), or this student athlete has deep seeded issues that need to be addressed now. Sorry for the rant. Coach Saban has received many complaints from alumni which he deserves.
