Alabama AD Greg Byrne Confirms New Arena Will Be 'Competition-Only'
When the UA System Board of Trustees announced an expansion to Coleman Coliseum to build a new practice facility for the Alabama men's basketball team in June,
Money well spent again. This new arena brings Alabama up the date with the football program. New weight room and training facility. New locker room to impress recruits. The replacement of Coleman would have been for the fans. These new facilities will be for the players and team. Nate Oats is pleased.
