Enters second-chance program Holloway (suspension) has entered a second-chance program for his felony charges, according to Mike Rodak of 247Sports.com.

Impact Back in March, Holloway was indicted on two felony charges, one for first-degree possession of marijuana and another for failing to affix a tax stamp. The second-chance program is part of a plea agreement that, ideally for him, grants him collegiate eligibility next season. It is worth noting that his second-chance program is a single step, far from clearance. Back on Thursday, Alabama athletics director Greg Byrne told AL.com that "there would still be multiple steps before we would consider a plan to allow him the opportunity to officially rejoin the program" and added that the notion that he will immediately be back on its roster is premature.
