Alabama head coach Nick Saban has responded to the reports of Lester Cotton’s arrest and has announced he will handle the issue internally. You didn’t think it would be handled any other way did you?

Soon after the news broke of Cotton’s arrest for possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, Saban issued the following statement:

“We are in the process of determining the facts in the situation with Lester Cotton. We will discipline internally like we have done in the past.”

Judging by his record in the past when dealing with these issues, don’t be surprised if this is the first and only time Saban addresses this incident with Cotton.
