Paul W. “Bear” Bryant, Nick Saban, Gene Stallings, Frank Thomas and Wallace Wade will have some company among the statuary near Bryant-Denny Stadium in the future, with plans underway to add Heisman Trophy winners Mark Ingram and Derrick Henry to the collection.

The plaza currently, also features statues of two nameless players that wear jersey numbers “18” and “92” which represents the year the university first fielded a football team

This will be great! Thanks.

Love it! TY, NT16 for posting.

Not really a fan of this. A bust in the Bryant Museum would be enough.

I don't like it either.

I'd like to see a "ring of honor" added to BDS for the All Americans.

Not a fan. Ring of honor might be cool.

Mal Moore would have run this by us first.

Like hip-hop music during games, this is aimed at recruits, not OFC fans.

Note: I am a proud member of the OFC.

I'm for whatever is best. But those 2 statues may stand there a very long time before another is added, as opposed to honorees being added to a "Ring of Honor" every year relating to both the young and older Bama fans. WTH...Do both. RTR

Gonna need a bigger stadium.

I would like to see bronze plaques of all 119 first team all-Americans put up around the outside of Bryant-Denny..

These two statues sound good also.

I like it. These two young men deserve it. They are special to the program in more ways than one.

Meh, why not? 10, 15, 20 years from now we will look back at this incredible run and these statues, etc. will be enjoyed.

I like it.

I think the players themselves would be the first to say that the Heisman trophy isn't the most important one. However, it is a remarkable achievement and is one of the most coveted awards in all of sports. Acknowledging that is worthwhile.

I would recommend they wait till after next year; probably get a better deal on buying 3 statues at one time.
