I think there are plenty of people who care, but it is a done deal now.
The Senate Faculty has proposed a vote of no confidence in UAB President Watts and a support of reinstating football. It is pretty much symbolic, but there is a real schism as to what the future of UAB should be.

UAB is only an issue to a handful of people in Birmingham. You know that, don't you? They have literally zero fan support outside of Birmingham

UAB was built into the valuable asset it is today largely due to huge infusions of cash by the University of Alabama system. The campus is about 50 miles from Bryant Denny. The big mistake with UAB football was the move to Division 1. The resources and support to make a D-1 program successful just isn't there with the proximity to Tuscaloosa

Some people cared, not plenty. That was the problem. I mean you had what? 30 people at the protest that morning?

Someone in the faculty Senate proposed it, not the faculty Senate. I doubt it will pass
