if charges are correct they're both teamless. well unless ole mis picks cam up lol
If you read quotes from the officer I don't see how they can be incorrect. Unless bama pays that $$$$$$ to make them that way :tu:
who would they pay?
They was caught red handed with 2 guns, and a bag of weed. One of the guns was reported stolen out of Alabama. I don't see how the changes could be anything but correct.

If it turns out different more then likely someone along the line got some $$.
 
It wasn't in Tuscaloosa or even in Alabama...So I don't see them getting any hometown special treatment. I think they are toast. Especially Robinson due to the felony. What an idiot. A potential top NFL 5 draft prospect should hire a semi-intelligent person to follow them around and keep them from doing stupid things. $100,000 for a year sounds reasonable...payable when he gets his first NFL check.

Pretty good Article about the situation.

When the phone of a head football coach rings at 3:37 a.m. in the offseason, it's the college football equivalent of fingernails across a chalkboard or that cryptic sound from Jaws when a shark is approaching.

Alabama head coach Nick Saban's phone rang twice Tuesday morning.

According to the Ouachita Parish (Louisiana) Sheriff's Office, per AL.com's Michael Casagrande, Alabama All-SEC left tackle Cam Robinson and reserve defensive back Laurence "Hootie" Jones were arrested in Monroe on weapons and drug charges, the most serious of which is Robinson's felony for possession of a stolen firearm.
As Casagrande notes, the penalty under Louisiana law for felony possession of a stolen weapon is "not less than one year nor more than five years" in prison.

Suffice to say, any potential punishment from the school might be a nonissue because, if convicted, Robinson might not be available to play for Alabama in 2016.
Robinson has started every game of his career over his first two seasons in Tuscaloosa despite several nagging injuries.

Without him in the lineup, it would be very hard to pick Alabama to repeat as national champs.

Robinson was the anchor.

The rock.

The stabilizing force on an offensive line that already has to navigate through a massive overhaul without three-year starter and 2016 first-round draft pick Ryan Kelly at center.

As ESPN Stats & Info notes, Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry and the rest of the Crimson Tide running backs did their best work outside of Robinson:
That was with Henry and a center who had three years of experience adjusting the blocking scheme at the line of scrimmage under his belt.

That offensive line won the inaugural Joe Moore Award in 2015, which is given to the nation's best unit. But it struggled at times, including in the first half of the College Football Playoff National Championship Game against Clemson. Now, it will be without its two best players from a year ago and has a new running back and quarterback behind it.

Alabama's offensive identity is a power rushing attack that dominates the line of scrimmage, establishes the run and works off play action downfield.

Every single part of that equation is a question this offseason, and Robinson's arrest makes it even more difficult to answer.
Korren Kirven started one game at right tackle in place of Dominick Jackson last year, according to his bio, and moved over from the defensive line after the 2014 season. Lester Cotton didn't record any stats as a freshman last year, and Jonah Williams is a freshman.

Think of the defensive fronts Alabama has to face early in the season.

Southern California is short on experience but loaded with talent, like rising sophomore linemen Rasheem Green and Noah Jefferson. Then in Week 3, that road trip to Ole Miss with the fearsome Rebels defensive front that features tackle Breeland Speaks and end Marquis Haynes looms large.

Robinson can deal with the speed Haynes brings off the edge. I'm not sure anybody else on the Alabama roster can at this point in their careers.

Later on down the road? Maybe. Three games into the season? Not likely.

Arkansas in Week 6 should be stout up front with Deatrich Wise Jr. off the edge, Tennessee the following week is loaded with stars in the trenches like Derek Barnett, LSU has an NFL draft's worth of monsters in its front seven, and Auburn's defensive line with end Carl Lawson and tackle Montravius Adams should be stellar if everybody can stay healthy.

It's unlikely Alabama can run that gauntlet minus Robinson without at least a couple of losses, considering it'll have an offensive line that already is undergoing some significant changes, a new feature back and new quarterback, which makes a second straight title seem more like fantasy than
 
Bama is better off without them. Particularly Robinson. Anybody that stupid is bound to make a major mistake eventually.
All he had to do was keep his nose clean and stay healthy, and this time next year he's a multi-millionaire. Stupid.

The NFL is full of these thugs. It's like you can take the boy out of the hood but you can't take the hood out of the boy. It makes me sick.

I remember back in the day ..I think it was the United Way commercials had the Legends of the games. They were well groomed well dressed well spoken gentlemen. Now days the commercials it's hard to tell if it's a inmate from the local prison doing the interview or what.
 
I heard Saban talking yesterday about how this country was founded on giving second chances and helping others when they were down. And not giving up on people because of an error in judgement.
He'll be suspended for the home opener.

Yep. Typical Saban and typical college football. He's "too good" to get in very much trouble.

He gave the same speech after he signed a kid with a FELONY charge who had already been kicked from other football programs. Kid ended up getting into some more trouble at bama.

Cam Robertson will still get a "second chance" in the NFL even if he didn't play this year he would still be drafted.



Same ole Saban using a Second chance speech so he wont have to kick a really good player.

Jones says, "I want to emphasize once again that the main reason I'm doing this is because I'm a huge Alabama fan and I refuse to ruin the 2016 season over something like drugs and felony gun possession. Alabama football is way too important to me, to my family and to the people of this great state to hold our best players to the same legal standard as everybody else. Roll Tide."
