but that sure is what got the fire burning though. I was laughing about it because up to now only Miles and Spurrier cared about how much Bama meddles in other peoples affairs. Saban raised hell about it when he was at LSU - now he has just fell in with the rest of em!

The only thing I care about at UAB is the medical school. Because without their recent help, I would be 6 feet under. Wouldn't stop me from posting on the Rant

Bama was legitimately afraid of UAB growing into a decent University for athletics because of "all the rich doctor alumni".
And they actually think there's a chance that they'll annex UAB and/or the hospital. That will NEVER happen.

It is all part of the same system, genius. It is a shared endowment among UA, UAB, and UAH. How does one "annex" something that's already a part of the whole?

Everyone complaining in here must be the same people that voted for Obama so they could get free school.

UAB can secede as soon as the $1+ billion check clears for all the money UA has invested in the UA medical school on their campus.

I went to UAB you sack of shite. Get this shite out of here - this is an SEC board. I support the President of MY University - UAB.
Sick and tired of the FOOLS here who have zero clue as to what they are talking about. And make no mistake, people here are absolute FOOLS.
Can we please make this an SEC board again? The shite coming from this site is beginning to stink . . . bad.

Let them secede... because then the medical school (the bread and butter of the system) will move BACK to the main campus and Birmingham will once again be left to pick up the broken crockery.

Boy is this pissing match stupid. Yes UA invested heavily in UAB. UAB now brings in more than UA. The investment has more than yielded dividends.
It is not about sports. It is not about UA fearing the athletic program. This is now about piss poor management.
Student SGA votes NO CONFIDENCE
Graduate Student SGA votes NO CONFIDENCE
Alumni vote NO CONFIDENCE
Senate Faculty vote NO CONFIDENCE
Board of Trustees issues a statement saying they have FULL CONFIDENCE.
Name me another University where the President would not be out after the students, faculty and alumni have all issued statements of no confidence.
Football at UAB is dead. This is about governance, pure and simple.

That is a very ignorant statement. Tuscaloosa does not have the hospitals/population to support a medical school. Almost all Universities have medical schools in the largest cities.

I think he meant that UAB med would be absorbed by UA, while still retaining their current location. It would take billions and billions to recreate the current infrastructure.
