tiger04, so it's all about Saban & how this affects/does not affect him. Curious if you feel the young girl who this thug punched out got "burned" in any way. She was not part of the risk taking process. She was a victim & Saban had very little to next to nothing to say about her role in this. This is all about domestic violence, which is a huge issue now across the nation in both society & every sport in the country. Yet, all Saban cared about was giving this thug a second chance. Make light of it all you want, but put your daughter/sister/wife in her shoes & let's see just how minor this it to you then.

Why is everyone still so mad about this thug that got kicked off the team? That was days ago. I think a thank you is in order for Saban taking one for the team and proving that this kid should not be on any team. He knew he would take heat, and did it anyway for the good of every other program. We can all move forward now, safer and wiser.

From the very beginning, Dave Grzyb told everyone who would listen that his daughter was the one to blame for the whole incident. He even made a personal call to coach Nick Saban, vouching for Upshaw's innocence and as a result, Upshaw was not disciplined by the team. Then after this morning's court hearing, according to the Tuscaloosa News, "Gryzb's father shielded her from news cameras at the Tuscaloosa County Courthouse Wednesday morning. He turned around to yell "Roll Tide!" as they left the building."
