Would You Visit a SEC HOF & Museum in Birmingham?

The State of Alabama embodies the Heart of College Football and with the SEC Office located in Birmingham, I think this would be as a good location as any and would be embraced by the City and State. I imagine it would have induction like most school HOF's and would also house SEC Memoribilia for each of the individual schools.

I'm comfortable saying the SEC Baseball Tournament will eventually move to Regions Field and placing the Museum nearby would be a great tourist attraction.

What says tRant?

It doesn't have to be Birmingham, but I think an SEC museum is a great idea

Ya but even as an sec fan if the two were right next to each other I would probably go to the college one instead.

Obviously Birmingham could use a perception makeover which I why I think an attraction like this would be good fit.

It would compliment existing attractions like the Baseball field, McWann Center, and the Civil Rights Institute. The BJCC is also developing an Entertainment District so I think the city is working hard to revitalize the downtown area. All these things among others make an SEC HOF & Museum in Birmingham a great fit

Really it's a moot point, seeing as how the SEC will be taking up most of the space in the new CFBHOF

Look, Atl can't haz everything. Try spreading the wealth to your Southern Brothers

And I presume that the REC would be the ones determining what & who gets in this HOF? Not no, but hell no.
