Alabama’s brazen attempt at court-ordering its way to a key roster reinforcement has officially blown up in the Crimson Tide’s face.
Charles Bediako, Alabama’s controversial former G Leaguer, was denied an injunction against the NCAA by an Alabama judge Monday, likely ending a near three-week saga that saw the Tide attempt to use the legal system to bring back a key piece of their 2023 SEC title team. Though Bediako (and head coach Nate Oats, long one to push the boundaries in search of victories) may have achieved the impossible in the process: make the NCAA look like a sympathetic figure in court.
