re: If anyone is actually interested in what happended with UAB

It's funny. I'm a finance guy by trade and a generally intelligent person by genetics.

I read the little "strategic plan for athletics" that Watt put out and it took me about 15 seconds to recognize a couple really obvious things:

1. The "consultants" that were brought in were told, from the start, to find a way to justify killing the football program.

2. The plan is to end athletics at UAB altogether within 10 years.

I'm not going to get into the politics of this shady arse deal (I have my own STRONG opinions)... but, it's obvious that, whatever the reason, the plan is to kill collegiate athletics at UAB.
