Well let’s just say what most people think about the University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa branch. Its football pursuits justify its identity with an uneducated backward white population and a symbolic link to the Lost Cause they hold so dear. Much in the same way as D.W. Griffith’s movie The Birth of a Nation encouraged the worst elements of southern society a hundred years ago UAT football encourages a similar backward behavior from a large segment of its fan base. Football has stalled UAT’s transformation into a modern university with intellectual, aesthetic or humanistic concerns. UAT fans overestimate the “esteem” of being the last college football factory.
History has shown that UAT fans defend the indefensible, deny the undeniable and are thus driven by extreme emotion into delusions and unconscionable actions. Even Nick Saban contributes to the lunacy by comparing UAT losing a football game to the Pearl Harbor and 911 tragedies when thousands of Americans lost their lives. The question is, would the NCAA actually do UAT a favor by handing down the Death Penalty for its football team? Then finally UAT faculty, alumni and students might appreciate the scholarship and learning that mark a university with intellectual fiber and integrity. Indeed until that time “roll tide” is the mortifying apology for those without individual self-respect or dignity.
Also UAT’s misplaced priorities of gold-plated football fluff over economic substance harm the state’s growth and development. The Crimson Tide football team is outlet for their lunatic fringe fans such as Paul Finebaum, Jay Barker, Harvey Updyke, John Phillips, Brian Downing, the Sugar Bowl “lady” et al and gives them a venue to be recognized. The abovementioned misfits are the predictable by-product of UAT football. The holy crusade of UAT football also acts as an impediment to social or economic progress. For instance African-American females are not allowed in the all-white UAT sororities. It is well known that when a university simply reflects the attitudes of its football fans it is no longer a university in the true meaning of the word. And so it is…
