Nick Saban has suspended defensive back Tony Mitchell following a recent arrest.
“Everybody’s got an opportunity to make choices and decisions,” Saban explained during a press conference. “There’s no such thing as being in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Tony Mitchell, a four-star defensive back who was pulled over by police, was charged with possession of marijuana, along with the intent to sell and/or deliver.
Note to Nate Oats: this is how you handle a situation like this publicly.
