I am only going by what the BoT publicly says.

...and they do get supported. perhaps not to the extent you think they should....but there are competeing agendas for limited resources.

Listen buddy, I have an undergrad and grad degree from UAT but did both undergrad and grad work at UAB.... I was also a southside kid so I get where you are coming from.

It has been a long-standing complaint at UAB that they alaways feel like a second class citizen to UAT. I have never met a professor or academic type who didn't think there concentartion was the most important thing and the admin. was screwing them on funding. I well understand UAB's complaints and I am on the record as syaing that UAB should be supported in the academic arena. The football team was an abortion and complete and utter waste of money that could have been spent elsewhere. Take the $100MM necessary to float a football team and pur it into academics.
