Alabama is looking to move out of their 54 year old 15,000 seat coliseum with poor sight lines and build a new $183 Million 10,136 seat arena that puts 2,200 students seats surrounding 3 sides of the court. (Makes for great TV viewing atmosphere plus makes those sections collapsible so they can convert it to a gymnastics floor for competition...which is big $$ in the SEC).

Of course this follows Auburn's lead who moved out of their old Coliseum and built a new 9,300 seat Arena...and the success that has followed that move.

Old 15,300 seat Bama Coliseum:
