A waterfall in Alabama's locker room? Falling water among the upgrades coming soon | al.com

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- Just two days after he committed to Alabama, five-star quarterback David Cornwell made waves when he revealed a new quirk about the Crimson Tide's every-day locker rooms.


That waterfall in Bama's locker room is about to be legit! C'mon who has a waterfall.. No one!

A waterfall, you say?
We asked Alabama sports information director Jeff Purinton to clarify what Alabama's top-ranked recruit meant with his Tweet -- which, of course, went viral.

There will be falling water in Alabama's upgraded locker rooms inside the Mal M. Moore Athletic Facility, Purinton said. It will be coming from a system that can flow from a few feet above the hot and cold tubs, which are located near the showers on the new area's first floor.

These are the finishing touches on Alabama's $9 million project to renovate and update the epicenter of its football factory. The bulk of which went toward the team's new strength and conditioning center, which connects the Mal M. Moore Athletic Facility to the Hank Crisp Indoor Facility.

Along with the "waterfall," Alabama's players will come back to new lockers, graphics, position meeting rooms and a theater-style meeting room -- located where the Crimson Tide previously pumped iron -- when they kick off camp in August.

In an interview with BamaMag.com, four-star defensive tackle Josh Frazier said the lockers would be equipped with jacks for the players' iPhones.

"When people come to Alabama, they expect to see the best," Alabama coach Nick Saban said during an interview last year. "We should always strive to have the best. As long as we have the resources and we can provide the best for our student-athletes, that's what we should do in all sports."

it is ridiculous to have a waterfall in the locker room, as it is ridiculous for UT to build 15 practice fields.

I think the phone jacks are cool, but I don't get the waterfall. A chick might want a waterfall in the spa, but football players? Who knew.
