UAB made it what it is today and now UA wants it back because it's top notch?

They didn't steal it. It's "The University of Alabama College of Medicine" Always has been, always will be

Asked if he planned to get actively involved in deciding the program's future, Bentley said he had not decided.

"But that is a decision that the Board of Trustees makes, and I am the chairman of the Board of Trustees and I always want people to remember that," the governor said.

Is there any way that UAB, as a university, could secede from the University of Alabama system.


They would have to have approval of [drumroll...] the UA BOT...The whole thing is a farce.

To me the litmus test is pretty simple: If UAB were an independent school with its own BOT, would it be pulling the plug? I have to think not. That should tell us something, if not about power and corruption, then at the very least about incentives and conflicting interests.

It's cute when Bentley tries to swing his tiny dick around like he has any power in this state. Better go check with Hubbard and Marsh before you do anything, Guvnah.

Just thought it was interesting that he said it was a BOT decision.

I mean, sorry that your typical 18-20 yr old college student doesn't want to travel across town to the ghetto and risk their car getting broken into. The only other reason to go to that part of town besides Legion Field is to buy heroin in the projects across the street.


The students at Birmingham Southern would like to say hi. They are a block from Legion Field.

"That's not what the degrees say"

Which is basically my and a couple others whole point. It has always been the University of Alabama School of Medicine. Somewhere along the line they started slapping the UAB logo on everything and pretending it wasn't the University of Alabama School of Medicine. It's a frickin joke but not suprising at all that Auburn people think it's somehow not the University of Alabama's medical school.

If Bama truly had no bone to pick with UAB, why the hell are Bama fans so satisfied to see UAB football go? I haven't seen one Bama fan be sympathetic (maybe I missed it).

Isn't there a bowl game there?

Also, if this is all about the BOT, you people do realize there are (4) members that are UAB graduates, (1) Ole Miss, (1) Auburn University (1) Tuskegee on the board. Where is their voice in all of this?
