Well Les Miles isn't Catholic. And hasn't donated money to CTK, at least publicly.

For the record. The Christ the King student center is the old church and was converted to the student center when the new church was constructed.

No it's not.

The old church was demolished for the new student center to be built.

A soon-to-be-built student center at St. Francis of Assisi University Parish will bear the family name of the University of Alabama's head football coach.

The 1974 church that once stood on the site was demolished in December. At 1 p.m. Feb. 1, St. Francis will break ground on the new Saban Catholic Student Center, which will be built where the former sanctuary once stood on Fifth Avenue.


The old church seated about 300. The new one more than doubles that with about 800.
