Saban kicks top Running Back off squad.

Jimmy Johns was sent packing after Nick Saban found out he was skipping classes. The Juniors grades were slipping but this sort of behavior is intolerable says Saban. The only chance Johns has of making this years squad is to go to summer classes. Even so this will definately drop him in the depth chart. Saban had actually considered making Johns the starter until he found out about the grades.

Jimmy Johns had a major attitude problem anyway.

Saban flat out told him that he lacked acceleration and danced around too much.

I'm a little late finding this, but... good for Saban. Glad to see him stressing the academics.

Anyone who does something like this is at least partially OK in my book.

Well it says something about his character that the news media hasn't or can't assassinate.

Thanks for the info, Stoney. Whew! It's a relief to know we have a capable man to replace Johns. I'm glad Saban is enforcing his rules. It's about time the players are held accountable for their actions and know there will be consequences if they don't get with the program.

Im sorry that Saban did what his heart told him to do instead of asking you what you wanted.

Johns will be able to rejoin practice Tuesday if he does what has been asked of him.
