Everybody has a job to do and college HC's have over 100 testosterone filled kids between the age of 17-21 they have to monitor, train, develop, coach, and groom into SEC level athletes. And if those coaches don't get those guys performing at top level and winning ball games then fans pull out the pitchforks and get the lynch mob cranked up. The idiotic choices grown ass men choose to do with their lives at the professional level can't be a worry or concern to their former coaches. No college coach has time for that crap. Yeah, I don’t think Saban has any interaction with many former players. He just wants to use them to show recruits that they have a better chance to get to the NFL through him.

The only time we ever hear about their extracurricular activities is when outside agencies are involved and then they have no choice but to address things and even then nothing much happens.. Makes one wonder if they will ever have what goes on over there brought to light. The last time I heard of any of their shenanigans being exposed was the textbooks for cash goings on in 2005. If I remember correctly all they got was what amounted to a slap on the wrist. Maybe one of these days they will get what is coming to them. One can only hope and I just hope I can hang around long enough to see it. LOL WDE Not necessarily in any type of order: Well there is always the TE selling drugs out of the athletic dorm. Then there’s the training staff paying a player. Not to mention the drug possession while caring a stolen gun. But they work out in the heat for bama fans, so that one was OK. We had the deer antler spray (steroids) before their bowl games. We had the defensive line coach fired for multiple recruiting violations. You are correct however, absolutely nothing came from any of the above mentioned issues. They were just not that big of a deal to King Emmert. http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2018/04/12/49ers-player-reuben-foster-accused-attacking-girlfriend-rupturing-her-eardrum.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The timing of this, the day before the draft, also seems very convenient as the Niners were talking about recruiting a Linebacker to replace him.
