instead of using it as a pretty lame pretext to take shots at alabama, read this article. Board of Trustees didnt make the decision to end football, per the president of the university. The University commissioned a study of the costs of ongoing athletics programs and discovered that they were going to have to sink 50 million in the next 5 years into the football program just to keep up in conference usa, decided it wasnt worth it since nobody at uab really gives a crap about football anyway

They got what they paid for. Don't be naive.

Coverup and spin. Typical.

This is exactly what they would say if it was a BOT cover-up. Obviously the entire thing was orchestrated by the REC acting on commands from Saban. I for one want a full investigation. Nuremberg is going to look like Jefferson County City Court if I have my way.

"Our undergraduates have different backgrounds," he said. "This is an urban campus with a vibrant undergraduate community. Attendance at football games has not been a major part of their activities."

Is this conversation still going on?
Let's just sum it up honestly:
1) LSU fans and Auburn fans absolutely did not give a flying frick about UAB until they found a narrative that they thought could give them trolling material. Had this situation arisen in some state with some universities they didn't care about, this topic would have died a quick death if it even arose at all;
2) Nobody believes they give a flying frick now. They don't even believe it themselves, and the harder they try to wax outraged about it, the more it resembles bad parody;
3) Bama fans need to just leave it alone because they're giving the LSU and Auburn fans exactly what they want, a reaction to the trolling. Y'all need to let it go. It's just that simple;
4) All this mealy-mouthed fake concern of TEH JUSTICE OH EM GEE! is an insult to the actual players and staff at UAB who deserve better than to be used as tools by tools trying to troll;
5) Alliteration is awesome.

Clearly no one thinks the BoT is involved --- even though they appointed the president.

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.

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).
