Alabama star Brandon Miller is being accompanied at the NCAA Tournament by an armed security guard.
The freshman, who was the Southeastern Conference player and newcomer of the year, declined to go into specifics about the extra security, implying it was nothing unusual.But Oats conceded it was hardly business as usual.
“Some of the messages from people that can sit behind fake email addresses, but who knows whether they're real or not," Oats said. “But if you'd seen what I've seen, you would understand what's going on right now.” Oats added that he looks at all his players like his own children: “I put myself in his parents' shoes, and our administration has seen the stuff that've I've seen. It's appropriate. But it's nothing a college kid should have to go through.”
After his name came light in the case, Miller received a harsh reception during a victory at South Carolina, where the crowd chanted “lock him up” and “guilty." Miller has repeatedly declined to discuss details of the case, saying last week only that he's relied on the camaraderie of his teammates to cope with issues off the court.AP college basketball: https://apnews.com/hub/college-basketball and https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-basketball-poll and https://twitter.com/AP_Top25
