As we reported earlier, Joseph W. Craft III, who heads Alliance Coal, put up $7 million for a new men’s basketball team residence hall for the University of Kentucky along with a group of donors he put together. But in return, he “required” that “Coal” be its middle name, according to news sources in the Wildcat state.

Now it’s official. In spite of student protests, the dorm was named after big coal. Wonder if it will be as dark as a coal mine in there? Hmmm…
