The fact that UAB people have the gall to criticize Alabama people when they originally started the war by hijacking the University of Alabama's medical school and rebranding it and going so far as to shut out UASOM alums from commencement activities shows who truly started the bushleague tactics. I'd love to cut UAB loose and give them all the independence they want and it will happen the second they give the medical school that they stole back to the main campus.

Once again, pure ignorance that you think UAB could do that without Alabama having the power to say no. It was 100% UA's to put the medical in Birmingham, seperate the main campus from it, and brand it solely under UAB.

shite. After they made it what it is and only after they got away from the shitty UAT academics. If they gave it back, it would go to shite again and the talent that comes there sure as hell would go elsewhere.

UAT is a football program with an above average and bloated Junior college attached to it.

Whether you want to admit it or not, UAB is the medical school and the medical school is apart of UAB. Disassociating the two isn't really right. Rebranding the UAB medical school into...the UAB medical school since it sits on UAB's campus is/was the right thing to do. There have been anti-UAB happenings from the board for decades and are well documented in news articles dating back to the 1980s. UAB is just as much a deserving equal part of the Alabama system as UA is. There's really no need for the in-fighting or for UAB to not have a football program.

Here you go:
