Alabama CB Maurice Smith Locker Gets Trashed After Telling coach Nick Saban He Wants To Transfer

Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Alabama CB Maurice Smith had his locker trashed after telling head coach Nick Saban he was transferring. Smith says Saban said he wouldn’t release him from his scholarship unless he transferred out of the Southeastern Conference.

quote:
On Friday, June 17, I arrived at the athletic facility locker room to find my locker cleaned out and all of my personal belongings in the trash (photo attached) underneath trash,” Maurice Smith wrote. “These personal items included my family photos, written goals, inspirational and sentimental items memorializing my deceased former friend, roommate and teammate, Altee Tenpenny, and items of personal value from my former teammates.

Smith even provided photos to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that they did not publish, as well as this text message from a redacted source within the program..

quote:
Bro I can’t have u at facility. Not for workout, lunch, anything. All in or out policy. Sorry bro.

"Smith even provided photos to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution his story that they didn't were not publish" I would say you're better than this, but I'm afraid that's simply not true.

Is there no proofreader at all?

Kind of disturbing. God forbid someone look for a different situation...something like their coach did...Nick Saban instilling cult-like "loyalty" is hilarious

pellietigersaint•106 months

you nailed it

timm6971463•106 months

A total lack of civility , copassion to players and coaches is why sabin ended up iat bama and losing at Miami didn't help neither !

got to be more to this story.

Yes, there is: saban's an azz hole.

1loyalbamafan•106 months

Yes. Kirby and Tucker shouldn't recruit players off the former team and expect an exemption to the rule be granted. It's as much about making Saban look bad to recruits as getting our nickel back to play for them.

I would normally say that the school should start an investigation by interviewing players and staff who have had run ins with law enforcement but college only lasts 4 years.

“These personal items included my family photos, written goals, inspirational and sentimental items memorializing my deceased former friend, roommate and teammate, Altee Tenpenny, and items of personal value from my former teammates." This is disgusting. CLM would never stand for something like this. It's good to root for the good guys.

timm6971463•106 months

Clm would put somebody out the door for this better yet he probably wouldn't have hire them !

lsuson•106 months

Whatever players/staff who did this are complete TRASH

To Saban: Did you order the code crimson? Saban: I did the job I'm paid $7 mill to do. To Saban: Did you order the code crimson? Saban: You're goddam right I did!

1loyalbamafan•106 months

To Kirby: Are you still trying to take thing from Saban to help your team. Kirby:I did the job I'm paid $6 mill to do. Did you tamper with Mo and promise him transfer that you blocked your own players from doing with Richt an Miami? Uh well that's not what I'm here to talk about. It's that damn Saban and his code Crimson I want in the media you tard.

Dear Larry Leo, Please, it's time to start posting nothing but pictures. You continue to butcher the English language without regard.

timm6971463•106 months

wburrou•106 months

Hey Nicky...if you scared say you scared! WOW...letting one DB transfer to another SEC school will risk you winning another championship, 'Com on man!!! Oh and by the way...your reaction (and the rest of the locker room bozos) to this young man wanting to leave UA is right on par with your classless and anger issue life! War Eagle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
