Exactly dude wasn't worth all this in the first place. Bama/Saban have no one to blame for putting themselves in this situation other than the man in the mirror.

This is the situation you end up with by actively recruiting a guy kicked off another team for arrests. Had JT never been arrested and kicked off UGA, this is not a major problem....girl admits she lied so he is back on the team, end of story. Now Saban's hands are tied.

Help your own players as much as you can, but leave the second chance "people heppin" situations for teams like Louisville. JT was going to get another chance but it did not have to be at Alabama.

And, yet, if none of this had happened, and the dude became a model citizen and never had another incident regarding DV, then Saban is a master at taming the savage beast and giving him a way to use his savagery in a "good" way on the football field. He goes on to obtain a degree and possibly an NFL position, with the success and big bucks that goes along with it. Then, bringing on the questionable player is suddenly a great decision, agreed upon by all the media and rantards. It's really something how we will turn and eat our own given the slightest provocation. It's as if no team has ever brought a questionable character onto their roster in the modern history of the sport. Not only has it happened - with no negative consequences - but I would guarantee that it has happened at every SEC member school on either the FB or BB teams.
