Re: Dismissed UGA football player to take official visit to Alabama
First, I would say even if Saban did take this kid, this is nothing like FSU. If he was at FSU, Jimbo would have stood up for him and he wouldn't have missed a single game. But... I hope he doesn't come to Alabama. I don't know the specifics, but the specifics sound bad, worse than the DJ incident (once I saw more details), because it seems pretty cut and dry that this guy punched and choked his girlfriend. I've said there is a line and he deserved to be kicked off the Georgia team, that's for sure.
There does have to be the places that give people second chances though. They have to exist, felons need jobs to, if someone is deprived a chance at an education, they become more likely to become career criminals, etc... but, I don't feel good about this guy.
