TUSCALOOSA, AL (WBRC) -

Three suspended UA football players have applied for youthful offender status in connection to charges that range from fraudulent use of a credit card to second degree robbery.

Court documents says Brent Calloway, Eddie Williams and D.J. Pettway filed for the status on Friday. The fourth player who was arrested in connection to the incidents, Tyler Hayes, has not filed a youthful offender request.

Williams, Hayes and Pettway have been charged with two robberies on the UA campus. Williams and Calloway each face a charge of fraudulent use of a credit card.

All four have been suspended from the football team. Williams, Hayes and Pettway have been barred from the University of Alabama campus as well.

A preliminary hearing for Calloway, Williams and Pettway is set for March 19 at 2 p.m. in Judge Guin's courtroom. As of 4 p.m. Wednesday, no court date has been set for Tyler Hayes.
