OPELIKA, Alabama -- The four former Auburn football players accused of armed robbery now have trial dates set for March, according to online court records and Lee County District Attorney Robbie Treese.


Treese told the Opelika-Auburn News that defendants Antonio Goodwin, Shaun Kitchens Mike McNeil and Dakota Mosley would be set for trial on March 5.


They were previously scheduled for the court docket beginning Oct. 31.


A judge will hear motions in McNeil's case tomorrow.


Three of the four players were denied youthful offender status in the case. McNeil was too old to apply for the designation, but he is challenging the constitutionality of Alabama's youthful offender law.


Goodwin and Mosley are currently playing junior college football in Arizona and California, respectively. McNeil unsuccessfully attempted to enroll at a school in North Carolina.


The four ex-players were indicted in May on five counts of first-degree robbery, one count of first-degree burglary and one count of third-degree theft of property. Mosley also faces a misdemeanor count of conspiracy to hinder business.



They are accused of robbing residents of a trailer home March 11 near Auburn's campus. Auburn coach Gene Chizik immediately dismissed the players after their arrest.

Someone help me out.  They're playing football in Arizona and California.  Could that be an attempt to show good behavior prior to sentencing?  Or are they just playing football for fun before they go to prison?

I would say yes, getting back in school, and/or showing that you're working would be just that.  If it's all true that this was a drug dealer they robbed, these types of cases sometimes wind up pleading down big time, or with the victim deciding he doesn't want to cooperate.   What role each played, if they (the individual was or wasn't armed) factors in.  Legally they're all equally responsible, but in reality, If one had a gun and put it to the victim's head, another stayed outside as a lookout, and another was just the driver...they are often given different sentences.

They're staying out there, hoping no one will care enough to come get them.
