arrested on drug charges.
Authorities said the Mississippi native was arrested Tuesday in
Tuscaloosa and taken to the county jail. He was charged with
selling cocaine and possessing ecstasy pills that officers
allegedly found at his home.
Undercover investigators allegedly bought drugs from the Crimson
Tide senior.
Police did not immediately return a call and it wasn't known if
Johns had a lawyer.
Johns played running back and receiver last season as a junior,
and he moved to linebacker in the spring.
There was no immediate comment from Alabama coach Nick Saban on
the arrest, but the school is working on a statement.

Well we all need a wake up call occasionally to sort of get us out of the ruts we dig for our selves. In all fairness I think most if not all of the problems now with the TIDE goes back before coach Saban. The previous coaches and the Athletic faculty seem to have had a” this kid is gonna play regardless of his back ground or other activities after games”. I think this team is still a viable team and will probably stumble thru a few games this season but still capable of doing a few upsets during this season. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a Tsunami coming out of Tuscaloosa within the next few years instead of a tide. ROLL TIDE!
