Collin Sexton didn't play during Alabama's exhibition game Monday night and it's now unclear when the five-star freshman point guard will be able to suit up for the Crimson Tide.

Tide officials were informed Monday afternoon that Sexton hasn't had his eligibility reinstated by the NCAA, so Sexton was held out of the exhibition game against Alabama-Huntsville Monday night and could potentially have to sit out games going forward.

"We don't have any further information at this time, but we will continue to cooperate with the NCAA and work toward a resolution that results in Collin's timely reinstatement," Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne said in a statement. "While we are disappointed, the right decision was to err on the side of caution for tonight's exhibition game."

This may stem from the FBI's college basketball investigation. Former Tide staff member Kobie Baker, who was "Staff Member 1" in the FBI complaint, received money in exchange for agreeing to push Alabama players toward signing with a certain financial advisor upon turning pro, according to the FBI complaint.

The document details a meeting Baker arranged with a player's father, that financial advisor and a man, Rashan Michel, who was arrested as part of the FBI investigation.

While the player's father wasn't named, he was identified as the father of a highly-ranked freshman at Staff Member 1's school. In addition, the meeting took place in Sexton's hometown of Atlanta.

Alabama coach Avery Johnson said multiple times Monday night, "Hopefully we'll have a quick resolution."

"He's handled this whole process in a first-class manner," Johnson said of Sexton. "You're talking about a kid that has straight As. He gets upset when he makes a below 90 grade on a test. ... Obviously he was a little disappointed (about not playing Monday night), but he said, 'OK, coach. I'll go back to my dorm and get some clothes and I'll get on the bench and cheer on the guys.' And that's what type of kid he is because he's a kid of strong character."
