    Saban offers support for Ricky Williams

    INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Miami Dolphins coach Nick Saban is offering his support to troubled running back Ricky Williams.


    In his first comments about Williams' latest failed drug test, Saban said Friday he wanted to help Williams stay clean, avoid any additional trouble and help the NFL keep drug tests confidential as required by league rules.

    "We want to support every player, and I think every player knows he has a responsibility for what to do and what not to do," Saban said. "As a coach, I also feel a responsibility to put a player in the best situation possible so he can have success."

    Saban lauded Williams' performance last season and was upset he even had to address the issue at the NFL's annual scouting combine.

    In his opening remarks, Saban asked the media to respect the league's rules, and after persistent questioning, Saban became testy in his responses.

    He appeared most upset by the fact word leaked out about Williams' latest test. The results are being appealed, but no ruling is expected until April.
