For the first time since May of last year, Nick Saban will be forced
to deal with an off-field legal issue involving one two three four of his football players. And, at first blush, it’s not your run-of-the-mill underage drinking citation, either. While details are scant at the moment,. what’s known is that four reserve Tide football players —running back Brent Calloway (pictured), linebacker Tyler Hayes, defensive lineman D.J. Pettway and defensive back Eddie Williams —were booked by the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Department on various charges Monday. Hayes, Pettway and Williams were charged with second-degree robbery, while Calloway was charged with fraudulent use of a credit/debit card. Williams was also hit with a fraudulent use of a credit/debit card as well. The individual booking pages for Calloway, Hayes, Pettway and Williams can be viewed HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE. From TideSports.com: Williams was released on $65,000 bond. Hayes and Pettway were released from jail on $60,000 bond. Calloway was released on $5,000 bond. Jail records indicate that they were arrested around midnight and released between 3 and 5 a.m. Neither Saban nor the school have commented publicly on the situation. This is Calloway’s second arrest since coming to the Tide as a five-star recruit in 2011. In October of that year, he was charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana. All four of the players charged are either true freshmen or redshirt freshmen.

They were all backups, true freshmen and red shirt freshmen. The bottom line is that behavior like that will not be tolerated and they have been suspended indefinitely, and after the investigation is done probably expelled from Bama.
