On Wednesday, Alabama coach Nick Saban questioned the motives of the Monroe Police Department and accused police officers who arrested Crimson Tide players Cam Robinson and Hootie Jones in May of being LSU fans.

Monroe PD disagrees.

“I can tell you for a fact that the first officer on the scene is not an LSU fan,” Monroe PD spokesman Chris Bates told USA TODAY. “He hates LSU. He doesn’t like the color yellow or purple and gold. In fact, he’s a Florida fan. If you mention LSU around him, he throws up in his mouth. Most of our officers are LSU fans, but we have some who are Arkansas fans and Georgia fans and Alabama fans. And I'll tell you this, the first officer did not even know those guys were players.”

Media personality Paul Finebaum confirmed that Saban, during an off-the-air exchange Wednesday, "indicated" the officers who arrested left tackle Cam Robinson and defensive back Hootie Jones were LSU fans.

AL.com shot video of the somewhat heated conversation between the radio and television star and the 10th-year Alabama coach on Day 3 of SEC media days in this Birmingham suburb.

"He indicated that the police were LSU fans, yeah," Finebaum told The Advocate. "I think that’s accurate."
