Alabama’s “Bama Cuts” videos are super popular with fans, as coach Nick Saban and former Crimson Tide players share stories from the team’s unprecedented run of success.

But the barbershop conversations rarely contain news, that is until the most recent episode.

Midway through Episode 4, Part 1, Saban and recent graduates Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Amari Cooper and Derrick Henry discussed how much the facilities have changed since the trio was making plays in Tuscaloosa. Saban then shared some future plans.

“What you guys are really going to like when they get it done, aight, is that room upstairs that’s going to connect, above the team meeting room, it’s going to be in the shape of a football, aight, and it’s going to have the national championship trophies, and the lights that hang from the ceiling are going to have national championship rings in them,” Saban said.

“We’re going to make that like the trophy room.”

Alabama did just win its fifth national championship in nine seasons and its 17th overall, so an updated area for trophies is probably a wise move. It will also appeal to recruits.

There’s always a new player to persuade to join the Crimson Tide program, and lately, there’s always a new facility upgrade to further lure him in during a visit, whether it’s a football-shaped trophy room or a barbershop that former players can be found inside.

But Saban was sure to tell his former standouts that they helped “create all of this.”

“The thing about it is is you guys all created all of this with the success that we had when you were here and we continue to have. And a lot of players contributed to that,” Saban said. “But the one thing I’ve got to say about the university and our administration here -- they reinvest it back into the players. I mean that’s why we build this stuff.

“You guys keep talking about all the that we’ve done since you’ve been here, well, that’s a sign of their willingness to reinvest in the players.”

What sparked Saban revealing the trophy room plans was Cooper asking about the new dining hall coming soon to the Mal M. Moore Athletic Facility. Unaware of the construction, Cooper was confused when the new cafeteria was mentioned in the barbershop.

The two-story dining hall has been added to the north side of the athletic facility will replace Bryant Dining as the nutrition hub for all student-athletes at the University of Alabama.

Set to open later this summer, Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne is excited to show it off.

“Took my first tour of it yesterday. Very impressive,” Byrne told BamaOnLine in an exclusive interview. “It’s going to serve our student-athletes and our teams very well. I think nutrition is something we have led on and want to make sure we continue to do so, and this’ll be as fine a setup as anybody has in the country for our dining hall.

“The end of July, first part of August it’ll be up and running, and we look forward to having that be something that really benefits our teams and our programs.”

Along with the “Bama Cuts” barbershop, a lot of new features are coming to the facility off Paul W. Bryant Drive, and former players are just as eager to see them as the current ones.

“I already felt like it was top-notch when I got here,” Henry said. “And I come back, and I’m like, oh.”
