Ryan Brown broke some huge news on WJOX this morning.
Nice little nugget from @RyanBrownWJOX in the first hour of the show: Brownie is told @Greg_Byrne has secured a donation large enough that it will allow him to arrange the additional financing needed to build a brand new on campus basketball arena, not just remodel Coleman.

There was some disappointment when The Crimson Standard included plans to remodel Coleman rather than build new. Needless to say, this would set off a celebration among Alabama fans who have felt for years that the basketball program lacked the necessary investment to get to the next level.
