Did he say anything about helping the other players that were involved in that incident?

That's a very solid follow up. I'm doing due diligence before switching feet.

Autocorrect?

Yes, he is. I started paying attention to his press conferences in the lead up to the 2013 Iron Bowl.

Football teams aside, the guy says an awful lot I agree with.

He mentioned that along with suspending the player from the program for a year or so they also had to do some other things. I think you can infer from that they had probably had to see an anger counselor and/or do hours of community service. Not ever guy is ready to do those sorts of things to change their life.

He said the others were TPOS. Pettway never touched anybody, though.

Calloway was on his second chance already but there was talk he could be heady back but never happened. Tyler Hayes would have been a player but I don't think he even tried to come back. Eddie WillIams I believe tried to go to go FAMU but is not on their roster... Some these guys were already on their second or third chance...

You mean the ones who actually assaulted the students? Yeah...there's nothing much he could do for them. They took an active role in beating up the students and used one of their ACT cards to buy stuff out of the vending machines. Those are felonies. Pettway did not participate. He was present but did not participate. That's the only reason why he was afforded a second chance by the administration.

As for the guy saying how it's convenient how Saban gives second chances to good football players. The other players involved were a 5-star ATH (Eddie Williams), a 4-star ATH (Brent Calloway), and a 4-star LB (Tyler Hayes). They were never invited back.
