Four Alabama players facing charges of robbery and fraudulent use of a credit card after a campus attack on two students Feb. 11 are not with the program or enrolled in school.

Coach Nick Saban announced Wednesday the disassociation of defensive back Eddie Williams, running back Brent Calloway, defensive lineman D.J. Pettway and Tyler Hayes with the team. The four had been suspended indefinitely by Saban and barred from campus by the university after the incident that left one student unconscious.

Williams, Hayes and Pettway each face two counts of second-degree robbery. Williams and Calloway were charged with fraudulent use of a credit card. In a separate incident a day earlier, Williams was charged with carrying a pistol without a license. Callway also had a prior arrest on misdemeanor possession of marijuana in October 2011.

Hayes, Pettway and Calloway played for the Crimson Tide this past season as freshmen. Williams, also a freshman, was redshirted.
