Oats: Miller’s pat-down intro ‘not appropriate’
The introduction was highlighted during Alabama's first game since Miller's presence at a fatal shooting in January came to light.

What part of the code of conduct would apply to witnessing and not contributing to a crime.
Being a witness is a punishable offense?
He brought the gun used to kill the victim.
He then mocks the situation using a pat down during pre-game introductions.
What part of that does not resonate with you in regard to proper conduct?
Whether he mocked the situation is up to interpretation. That specific pat down intro is not uncommon. Watch NBA games and you’ll see it often. So that wouldn’t be covered by any code of conduct, even if it was in poor taste. That’s not how codes of conduct work.
He drove his car to pick up a friend. The car had his friend’s gun in it, which his friend had asked for without giving any indication in the texts that he intended to have somebody shot with it. Picking up a friend isn’t going to be against the code of conduct. Giving a friend his legally registered firearm likely isn’t (and perhaps cannot be, by law) against a code of conduct.

It is hard for some to focus on more than one aspect of a situation. You can only focus on the single fact of a complex situation that he was asked to bring Miles' piece and subjectively, did so. Until your brain can comprehend how to piece together a 25 piece zoo puzzle, I doubt you will understand something as challenging as how Miller could possibly be anything but a witness in this situation.
It’s really this simple. @winin11 only cares about winning though. Who cares if someone was killed. Row tahd
Yeah, defending criminals is pretty disgusting.
There are things bigger than sports outside of Alabama
@AuHoosier420 you are wanted on the thread that you started about Kentucky ****ing over poor little Auburn by the officials. That thread was
Seems like today is ripe for a classic UK Home cooking…
Auburn has not won in Lexington for 35 years and you lay out a bunch of bull and then disappear.
You have no credibility Dude. You are a sell out.
Your worthless ass has not been over there.
You need to go defend the lies that you put out.
I know facts don't matter to an angry mob, but this is false. Him and his teammates have been doing that all season. Here is video proof from the UCONN game.
Are you really this stupid?
I guess you disagree with his coach and the rest of us who are self aware and would never do something so stupid huh?
He brought the weapon. He delivered the murder weapon.
Why did his friend tell him to bring it if he wasn’t going to use it.
I mean it kind of matters since that poster accused him of mocking someone's death which wasn't even close to being the case. I agree, now would not be the best time to be doing it given the circumstance. Oats ended it.
I feel like the thread has turned into a troll fest.
I just choose to ignore geriatric folks on lunatic rants
You are chicken to finish up what the **** you started.
Chicken.
You are a big pussy.
It doest matter that he and the other player that pats him down have been doing that all year.
There are some players in the NBA that do the same thing in the intros.
And it should have stopped immediately. Oates Even said it would. Talk about tone deaf. Good lord
Anything involving a murder should be a expulsion.
Wtf is happening to society?
I guess when you are poor shit hole state like Alabama, it's all you have

I also said this, meaning I believed actual evidence could indict him. But, this occurred 5 weeks ago and they said haven't charged him with anything.
I take it this is the woman who was killed? I guess we're supposed to look at this picture and hate Miller. I see this picture and wonder why was this woman hanging with violent criminals at 1 in the morning instead of at home asleep like a responsible mother. Why is Miller any more, or even as much to blame for that child not having a mother than his mother?
It's a sad situation for sure, but no one who is up in arms over this really cares about the woman who died, they just want to be upset over a basketball program. Everyone wants to act like she was just an innocent bystander. I am not saying she was not innocent. But she was with a group of people who initiated the violence and by accounts, had multiple weapons. Her choices were every bit if not more to blame than Miller's choice to pick up two people that he was going to pick up anyways.
I have no idea
That said
It is difficult for me to comprehend that a highly paid HC and a highly paid AD would risk their jobs, reputations and futures if they weren't truly convinced that he is in the clear.
That said
I would have suspended him simply for hanging with this level of human excriment.
