Nick Saban responsible for changing perception of arrested players

The arraignment for Alabama players Cam Robinson and Hootie Jones has been set for June 16. They were arrested May 17 in Monroe, La., on multiple misdemeanor counts, including possession of marijuana; Robinson also was hit with a felony charge for possession of an illegal firearm, the most serious of the charges.

“We all have a responsibility and an obligation to represent the university, ourselves and our families in a first-class way,” Tide coach Nick Saban said after the arrests. “Obviously we’re a little disappointed that better choices and decisions weren’t made here. But until we get the facts, we don’t really have much else to say about it.
