Not true at all. I couldn't care less what they do ans I doubt highly that ALL AUM alums feels they are treated fair. UAB has whined form day one and I say break away. Remember however, the med school stays with us if you do. These are not 3 equal universities. The flagship is in Ttown. WHat would you REALLY say if several AUM alums said they wanted equal rep on the BOT on the Plains?? what would you REALLY say?? Are they quiet because they are truly happy or because AU has told them if they open their mouth they will find their seat vacated. Lowder wasn't above something like that and you know it.

Also, all AU fans want "whats best" for UAB?? DO you really? Do AU fans buy UAB tix??, donate to the schollie fund??, nah, they just "say" I support them.
I wish some honest AU alum would say the truth in that "I want UAB to be a force so it hurts THE university of Alabama both academically and athletically". I'd at least I'd respect you for being honest then.

Wow... Have a cup of coffee... Lowder, really? Is he back on the board? Is he current?

I said I want what is best for UAB, I was not speaking for all Auburn fans, but I think most sane people want what is best for UAB, Troy, AUM, Alabama State, Tuskegee, South Alabama, N. Alabama, etc.

You love the "IF" word, but I will play. "IF" the majority of AUM students, faculty, etc. want to become the University of Montgomery or Montgomery State, then that is fine by me. That will mean they have grown to the level that it is warranted. When the legislature puts up a bill, then I have no opposition to it.

Hey, BAMA fan answer ONE question. What is the biggest reason for NOT allowing UAB to go independent?
