I know message boards are where facts go to die (though this one is far more reasonable than other GT boards). Here's actual info:
-- GT is part of bidding process for major Atlanta events, and facilities are usually primary contribution that GT makes. These events are HUGE for the city, and it makes 1000% sense for GT to be part of this. It's good for everyone, not to mention a great recruiting tool.
-- For the national championship, use of the indoor was part of bid and assigned for use to higher seed many, many months ago.
-- Higher seed ended up being Georgia. GT admin made it known they did not want Georgia on our campus, so practice sites were flipped early in the week. If they desire to practice, Alabama will have use of the indoor. There is no public access.
