not too bright.

you'd think he'd have someone to call

Golding remained in the Tuscaloosa County Jail at 9:30 Thursday morning, where his bond is set at $500. His mugshot was not immediately available.

His bond is 500... LOL. Likely he has to sober up before he can bond out. He'll be fine. Probably get suspended, handled internal within program.

 

[Tug Tide]

Geez… sure hope for better leadership of young men.
Hopefully he learns from this

Being the son of an alcoholic father, I have no tolerance for this. People make mistakes but he is an adult who leads kids.

 

[NationalTitles18]

No excuse in this day and age and with his resources.

 

[rolltide_21]

I hope this is not indicative of a larger problem in his life. If so, I hope he gets help for it.

...he is an adult who leads kids.

The transitive verb may become past tense. I don't know how you can be effective leading college players these days from a glass house such as the one he's just put himself in...

Resources? Stay at home and get plastered. It’s not rocket science. Go out and have fun, or stay at home and get drunk. Either way, I don’t care. This is inexcusable.

Let's hold off judging until we hear the whole story first. I remember few years ago, we had someone getting arrested or something in LA... and lot of people wanted the players off the team and etc.. and once we heard the whole story... the narrative changed.

Golding and his DUI arrest, that was stupid... but this could be 1 time incident and he'll learn from it. If it is more than 1 time incidents that we don't know about then yes, he needs to be removed. but Until then, let's not jump to conclusion.

Drinking is no joke. I knew a fella once who had a problem with alcohol. He saw a sign that said 'Drink Canada Dry.'

He went up there!

I just can't think of an excuse for a DUI

Maybe so, but this will affect his relationship with players and their parents in recruiting. He is a great recruiter... parents apparently love him. Hopefully, he can get the help he needs if this is a problem that is just now surfacing.

This just seems like a very Golding thing to do.

His whole time here seems like he does something good then he does something bad.

How? Sark had a drinking problem and it didn't affect his recruiting. Shoot, it didn't affect at Texas as well.

I'm sure they'll ask questions but shouldn't be an issue.

how so? I'm not trying to defend him, but this doesn't pass logical thinking test.

Nobody is making excuse for him, but let's see how it plays out... Folks on here can be harsh without waiting to hear the whole story... we've been through this with players.

Inexcusable, but - Golding could be a pioneer in the St. Saban Coaching Rehab Academy - simultaneous active duty field operative and tough-love penalized intern!
