🏈 1st world problems: Bama has run out of room for its trophies. Thorpe Awards, etc, sitting on a random table until they can reorganize display lobby

I wonder what they are going to do about the Walk of Champions.

i still say build short, curved walls on the side opposite the statues. it can have "breaks" in it for people to walk through on game-days so it doesn't serve as a giant funnel.

then they can have the plaques made and attached to the walls.

The Bryant Museum has needed to be bigger for a long time, let alone with all the new hardware over the last decade.
It's been several years so I might be wrong to say it was Clem Gryska that mentioned this in passing one day. I know it was before Saban arrived in Tuscaloosa when I was told there wasn't enough room--then. Now? Geez.

It's my thought when they renovate/rebuild Coleman they should tackle this endeavor as well.

As much game film as they have in the Museum I'd love to see that archived and made available for fans to watch online.
 
It is truly amazing how much "stuff" they have at the museum.

Several years ago, Doemaster's brother worked there and took Doe, me and my wife through the bowels of the museum. I was awestruck, to say the least. The high light of the trip was meeting Coach Clem Gryska. Such an humble gentleman. He spoke with my wife and I as if he had known us all his life.

The museum definitely needs to be larger.

I make it a point to always go to the Bryant Museum just to see what has changed or what they've added, everytime I go to Tuscaloosa. Last time I actually went in, you could barely move because it's so packed in there, combined with the people. This past season I didn't even go in because of how many people were packed in there.

100% agree, if they are doing Coleman, take on the museum, too. And 1000% agree with the film. Those archives are a gold mine. They could even do a subscription service, maybe $5 a month to watch all of it on demand.

Sometime ago I remember reading where they'd just started digitizing old films and picture. It's been a while since that day but even then I was a little shocked at how behind the times they were on what they have. It's been more than a decade, and they were doing it in a top notch fashion at the time, ... still, it was a "dayum, just now getting to that?"
