People that attend Alabama usually love the university and all our athletic programs. It's the sidewalk Alabama football fans that degrade our other programs.

It's such an odd phenomena that so many football only, sidewalk Alabama (seems LSU, Auburn ect as well) fans act so threatened by the mere presence of a basketball team.


That said, Alabama is no Kentucky--hardly any school is-- but there's a ton of hardcore fans that love and follow Alabama basketball win or lose.

Unfortunately, I suppose a lot of them are like me and live far away and can only see them play in person every once in a while like in the NIT final four last year.
