Alabama’s Aden Holloway ‘Removed From Campus’ After Drug Arrest

Alabama's Aden Holloway is no longer with the team, as the university announced that the star guard has been "removed from campus" in the wake of his drug arrest Monday morning.

Holloway, the No. 2 scorer for the Crimson Tide, will be off the team until he goes through the school's investigation process, which is conducted outside of the athletic department through the UA Office of Student Conduct.

Alabama, which has won nine of its past 11 games and has the No. 3 offense in the country, is a 4-seed in the Midwest Region of the NCAA tournament and will play Hofstra in Friday's first round in Tampa, Florida.

Tuscaloosa County police spokesperson Stephanie Taylor said Holloway was arrested Monday morning after agents with the West Alabama Narcotics Task Force searched a residence near Alabama's campus and "recovered more than a pound of marijuana, paraphernalia and cash."
