Young's name still on Bryant center room

04/01/04

Disassociated University of Alabama booster Logan Young still has a room named after 
him at the university's Bryant Conference Center.

Young was one of three UA boosters disassociated from the university as part of the 
NCAA sanctions in February of 2002. UA Athletics Director Mal Moore said the room was 
named for Young long before the sanctions were placed on the university.

"To be truthful, I know there is a room named after Logan but it was done way back," 
Moore said. "That has no effect on the NCAA ruling. His disassociation was from that 
point forward."

Young is not allowed to contribute money to the university and the Tide Pride program 
or buy season tickets from the university.

Moore said he was not sure how much Young contributed during the building of the 
facility but believes it was "right at the end of Coach (Paul) Bryant's career when he 
made that contribution." Bryant retired after the 1982 season.

The room is one of several small conference rooms at the Bryant Conference Center. The 
center is a division of the UA's College of Continuing Studies.
