'MVP! MVP!'
Alabama forward Brandon Miller, center, poses with fans after a win over Auburn, which clinched the regular-season SEC championship, after an NCAA college basketball game, Wednesday, March 1, 2023, in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The chants erupted Wednesday as Brandon Miller took to the free throw line with six seconds left in Alabama’s come-from-behind victory over Auburn, a win that clinched the SEC’s regular-season title for the Crimson Tide.
“I think the important thing is that nothing’s changed,” explained Eddie Bassett, a member of the Crimson Chaos. “We’re not directly involved with the players. Our specific goal is to create a great student atmosphere. We’re not going to go out and say something when we don’t know everything.” The incident occured in the early morning hours of January 15, near a strip of bars just off the Alabama campus. Darius Miles, then a member of the Crimson Tide basketball squad, and a friend, Michael Davis, got into an altercation with 23-year-old Jamea Harris. Miles texted Miller asking him to bring him his gun, which Miles had left in the backseat of Miller’s car. Miller arrived, Miles allegedly gave the gun to Davis and Davis allegedly shot Harris, who died on the scene.
“A lot of people don’t want to talk about it on campus. A big part of it was that everyone was so shocked when the Darius Miles stuff first came out, and that was a month before this,” explained student journalist Nicholas Pursley.
