Despite the fact that the university’s basketball program is in the shadow of American football , it has begun to receive more attention in the last four decades. Under the leadership of coach Mark Gottfried, the team even briefly became the best team in the country in 2003, and also participated in the final of the NCAA regional tournament in 2004. The team gained fame in the 1980s - early 1990s, becoming a regular contender for the championship title in the conference. In the 2003/04 season, the Crimson Tide defeated the first NCAA sowing number [2] and reached the quarter finals of the tournament [3] .
