Hmmm... The public institution was paying for his education, room and board. This is after two of the state's highest paid officials (Saban and Battle) decided collectively to admit him to the university despite previous (alleged) criminal conduct. Unrelated (?) if the athletes eventually become classified as university employees, does that subject the university to liability when they decide to do stupid shite like this
Good luck with any law suit against a state institution regarding an off-campus altercation between a girl friend and student-athlete! You guys are stacking stupid on top of stupid.

Reading comprehension might not be your strong suit. My first point was that you could blame Saban and Battle to a degree for what happened because they knew the guy was a risk and brought him in anyway.

My second point was that if these kids are considered employees of the school, which is what a lot of the litigation claims, could.the university be held liable. Many student athletes live on campus. And if they live off campus, the school is still the one paying the rent for a kid that they subsidize to be on campus in the first place.
