I have a Bama fan that works for me who thinks y’all will change the stadium name. I told him I bet y’all go the UF route and name the field after him. What do y’all say?

Denny has the chimes named after him. (They were actually built for him as a gift to keep him from retiring, and it worked)

I wish they would drop Denny from the Stadium and name it after Bryant and Saban.

I hate the whole field/stadium naming thing, seems ridiculous.

They should just put his name on the stadium.

Nobody that I'm award. Teams typically only name their field when they want to honor someone but the stadium name is sort of taken or full.

Bryant-Denny-Saban Stadium is a mouthful but people will get used to it.

Besides, people use the abbreviation BDS already and I get the feeling people will just stop saying 'stadium'

You'll hear it called Bryant-Denny-Saban which sounds a lot like the current name.

they should name the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta after him. Bama owns Atlanta.

I don't think you understand how important Denny was not just to the school generally, but to the football program specifically.

Lets see a show of hands of those of you who would have selected Bill Curry over Bobby Bowden as your HC.

Anybody, Bueller....

Bryant Denny Saban Stadium......

The real question is what will Alabama do when another Bama coach breaks Coach Saban's record at Alabama?
We have already run out of room for National Title paving stones on the Walk of Champions, the entire thing has to be redone......#Alabamaproblems......

I think these were some of the changes to BDS Greg Byrne was hinting at. The paving stones wrapping around BDS.

That’s cool. I have an LSU grad who works for me. Does good work, but he’s slow and methodical.

Nah. Likely the field, as you speculated

Bryant Denny Stadium in Saban, Alabama. I’m offended by the city being named after an Injun anyway
