I can promise you that those players did the same stupid shite that players today do, but the press didn't have access to all of the discipline issues. The few media outlets who would find out, weren't going to report it anyway because you just didn't do that kind of stuff back then.

In the 1960s, Alabama ruled college football, winning national championships in 1961, 1964 and 1965. But even Bryant's top players weren't exempt from the coach's wrath. Joe Namath was suspended for the final two games of the 1963 season for violating Bryant's no-alcohol policy and Ken Stabler was booted from the team in 1967 for cutting class and partying. Both eventually got second chances.
