Why are bama fans so opposed to uab football?
I'm sure everyone has their own reasons, but most of us just are just sick and tired of all the bitching at UA. If you didn't know any better (and most don't) you'd think it was the UA BOT that killed UAB football. Rarely is the blame ever assigned to the correct person, the UAB President and UAB Alum Ray Watts.
Every thread on this topic devolves into slinging mud at UA when, so far, the BOT has steered well clear of this whole clusterfrick. This doesn't even involve UA in the slightest, but rival fans here are all too happy to muddy the water and stir up shite. Just read this fricking thread and ask yourself why UA fans are responding the way they do.

They had a hand in it

Also responsible
I think we can all agree that the whole situation was handled poorly. If handled differently it would not have been as big a deal

Lol. If you think the BOT had nothing to do with UAB football shuttering then your head is in the sand.
The President has to supposedly go through the BOT to reinstate it, but didn't have to go through the BOT to kill it? Makes sense.
By all of their canned statements of support for the president's decision, they at least approve of his shutting it down. They approved his hiring. Starts at the top and they're at the top. The president hasn't been removed or reprimanded after no confidence from everyone on campus. He is paid hundreds of thousands more than the previous president and is one of the highest paid college presidents in the country.
UAB fans should be able to upset with their own board of trustees without it being an attack against The University. Their existence is attackin' us!!
