ICYMI: Crimson Tide Report—Saban Blocking Transfer
Back in June, Alabama football defensive back Maurice Smith announced his plans to look into transferring from Tuscaloosa after graduating.
According to a letter obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution from Maurice Smith to the Alabama appeal’s committee, Smith informed Saban of his decision and the Tide head coach told him that he would not be allowed to transfer to another SEC program and later told him that SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey agreed with that decision.
In the same letter, Smith said that personal items in his locker were thrown in the garbage and the staff members told him that he was no longer allowed to use the facilities to workout.
