"After a thorough investigation, we determined the conduct of the individual contracted to operate a parab during the Arkansas-Alabama game was unacceptable and in violation of ESPN policy and our rights holder agreements. He has been contacted by our legal department to surrender all footage he improperly obtained and remove any and all posts containing it. We have reviewed and revised existing protocol to protect against this happening in the future."

"It was posted "by Pelham (Alabama) High School defensive backs coach Anthony Jacks," ESPN reported, "but Jacks told ESPN.com on Monday that he does not own the video. He recorded it on his phone from the owner of the video but declined to identify the owner who originally shot the video."
