April 13, 1991: The indoor football facility, completed in 1986, was officially dedicated in the name of legendary Alabama coach and administrator Hank Crisp. University President Dr. Roger Sayers, Athletic Director Hootie Ingram, and former player and coach James "Bubber" Nesbitt made the official remarks commemorating the building in honor of Coach Crisp, who was an assistant football coach at Alabama from 1922-42, and then again from 1950-57. Crisp also served as athletic director, head basketball coach, head track coach and head baseball coach during his career at Alabama.
