Alabama Pair Punished

Two Alabama football players have lost their eligibility until they clear up tire loans guaranteed by a Crimson Tide fan, school officials confirmed.

The players, who school officials would not identify, still have outstanding balances of about $1,000 and $190 with Bojo’s Mag Wheels and Accessories, the school and the NCAA said.

Both players participated in spring drills but will not be able to play this fall unless the loans are resolved, the school said.
