I feel like Bama may be one of those schools where it's not openly publicized if there ARE COB events.
Historically for most Chapters, COBing is pretty rare at Bama. A few years ago Chapter Total was increased to 180 and that pushed several under Total. As I recall perhaps 6 ended up doing Spring COB that year. Even then Chapters were only able to take like 5-10 new members.

AFAIK and not counting SDT, all Chapters except 1 were still above Total last Spring. Normally with a quota of 72 Fr and 5 Up, most would be well above Total. However with the lousy economy I know everyone is facing a significant increase in the number of member resignations due to not being able to afford sorority life. So this year, who knows?
