Alabama allowing Brandon Miller to continue to play is now the story of the college basketball season

The second-ranked Alabama basketball team hosts Arkansas on Saturday at 2 p.m. ET. Brandon Miller and Jaden Bradley are expected to start, as they did Wednesday in the Crimson Tide’s victory at South Carolina.

This will occur despite pretrial testimony this week revealing that both were at the scene of a Jan. 15 shootout in the student bar district of Tuscaloosa that resulted in the death of 23-year old mother Jamea Harris and capital murder charges to be placed on former Alabama player Darius Miles and his friend, Michael Davis.

As awful as the tragedy was and as terrible as the loss of a single life is, everyone is fortunate that additional innocent people — most notably Alabama students out on the town — were not shot or killed that night.
