Alabama RB Tyren Jones Arrested!!!

In sports today we just got word that Alabama RB Tyren Jones Arrested for marijuana and was later dismissed from the program.

CelebNMusic247.com has learned that this was the third arrest of a Crimson Tide football player in four days.

On Tuesday Jones was charged with possession of marijuana second degree and released on $1,000 bond, Tuscaloosa police said in a news release.

Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban released a statement later in the day saying Jones “was given an opportunity academically and from a team rules standpoint, but he failed to do any of the things necessary to comply with the rules of the Alabama football program.

Saban said.

“He was dismissed from the team when he refused to follow the parameters given to him for reinstatement.”

Saban had suspended Jones indefinitely on Feb. 10 “for conduct not to the standard of the Alabama football program.”

Saban added:

“We’ve created many opportunities for players through the years and sometimes those things have worked out extremely well.”

“We’re sad to say in this case it didn’t and we all take responsibility for that. We have a good program here at Alabama, and we have a lot of good players who have done a lot of good things in this community on our team.”

Last Saturday, Alabama Safety Geno Smith and since-dismissed defensive lineman Jonathan Taylor were arrested.

It sounds like Tyren Jones is ready for the big time in the NFL?

Thoughts?
