Bama (a-hole Paul Bryant, Jr., in particular) blocked UAB from hiring Jimbo Fisher the year before he went to FSU. That would have upgraded the UAB program, which is why Baby Bear blocked it.

The history of UAB football is the history of UA putting every obstacle possible in its way.

LULZ, they didn't block Fisher they blocked the doubling of the budgeted salary mere months after UAB's president agreed to hold down some costs to get the football budget out of the red.

Those guys couldn't have cared less about the impact of someone who'd never been a head coach.

Hell, you don't even have the right conspiracy theory. You're supposed to say they blocked it so Saban could bring him to Tuscaloosa, (even though Alabama hadn't hired Saban yet). You're straying from the party line.

Since you seem so concerned with Jimbo Fisher's employment, you should convince au to field a team at aum and THEY can hire Fisher. AUM could play in the Cramton Bowl and solve two problems at once.
