It's uncertain what punishment -- if any -- Alabama could face after it was revealed last week in federal court documents that an alleged payment of $5,000 was made to former star player Collin Sexton by an aspiring sports agent.
Remember when we questioned how Bama was getting away with playing that broccoli-headed moron? They kept playing him even though the reports said he and his family had taken money to go to UA? Remember how we wondered why al.com was blistering Chuck and Brandon Marcello was saying Bruce was gone while little was said about broccoli top? Remember that it was just ignored......then. https://www.al.com/alabamabasketball/index.ssf/2018/10/will_ncaa_penalize_alabama_aft.htmlOh NOW the very thing we knew a year ago is suddenly a surprise.
Expect someone to fall up a flight of stairs with a salad soon.
Or perhaps a strongly worded, backdated letter is in order.
Among revelations in court this afternoon, documents suggesting Christian Dawkins paid $5,000 to Collin Sexton and another calling for $1,500 per month to Sexton, $21,000 for travel for his family and a four year job for his brother ($35,000 per year, with $5,000 annual raise).
"We addressed that last year," Johnson said. "Collin was suspended for a game and we've all moved on. We're just coaching the team. We're not involved in any of that stuff. We're just coaching our team."

You. Shitting. Me? That's the end of it? If they don't burn Coleman Coliseum to the ground, the NCAA needs to close up shop or just put a big billboard outside Tuscaloosa saying "Cheating Allowed Here" Motherfuck.
