HOOVER, Ala. -- The fate of Alabama left tackle Cam Robinson was one of the biggest question marks for the Crimson Tide heading into SEC Media Days, and on Wednesday head coach Nick Saban shed some light on the topic.

Robinson and reserve safety Laurence Jones were arrested in May, but a Louisiana district attorney decided not to prosecute them. With that in mind, Saban was asked about what the future holds for the two players.

“Cam Robinson and Hootie were not charged with anything,” Saban said. “I think that the facts we have are a little different than what has been advertised. Both players are doing a significant amount of things to change their behavior internally, whether it was police ride arounds, whether it was community service for juvenile groups that need positive role models and influence to make better decisions.

“So we’ve viewed this as, if these guys do these things to change their behavior and help these other people -- and that is ongoing -- if they continue to do that, that is how this matter will be handled internally.”

Robinson is set to enter his third season as Alabama’s starting left tackle, while Jones can fill a need in terms of depth in the Crimson Tide secondary. Alabama opens its 2016-17 season on Saturday, Sept. 3, against USC in Arlington.

“Based on the information that we got and based on what they did wrong, I think the prosecutor made the decision on the whole body of work based on what was done and what the laws are,” Saban said. “And that’s not my choice, that’s not my decision to make. I’m also making this decision based on history of the kind of people those players have been in our program and the things that they’ve done to change their behavior relative to our program.”
