Jaykwon Walton No Longer Being Recruited by Alabama After Arrest; Guns Found in Car

Former Wichita State forward Jaykwon Walton announced his intention to transfer to Alabama last month, but that will no longer be the case.

According to AL.com's Carol Robinson and Mike Rodak, Walton was arrested over the weekend in Tuscaloosa and the Crimson Tide no longer will be adding him to their program.

"Alabama is no longer recruiting Jaykwon Walton and he will not be a student-athlete at The University of Alabama," head coach Nate Oats said in a statement.

The 21-year-old was one of two people arrested on Saturday night on a charge of second-degree possession of marijuana.
