As we all know, the University of Alabama has ownership of UA-Birmingham (UAB).

But, why do you guys keep trying to kill UAB's various athletics programs?

Their basketball team is 26-5 and first in their conference this year...but if it isn't "The Tide", then you couldn't give a rat's arse. "Roll Tide or Death!".

You tried to kill their football program as well.

Why doesn't the University of Alabama let these people go?

Are they your Slaves?

It is time to let UAB go guys.

UAB's good to go if they want but two things:

Medical school comes back to Ttown and the now named Birmingham University will have to build and staff its own med school. Don't be foolish and think it stays as is.

Do you seriously think UAB athletics will survive as a single entity. We subsidize millions just so they can play sports and they can create a Birmingham university but will lose whatever help they have now. Lots of people blow hot air about how UAB is stepped on. In truth, Alabama has kept that place pretty much alive athletically speaking. Free UAB did nothing to bring back football. If the flagship campus didn't want UAB to have football, they wouldn't have it. I suspect they won't in 5 years because they will keep drawing about 15K (no they didn't actually average 30K BOUGHT tickets last year) to games and that simply can't support football.

Double whammy for Auburn.
First they get shite kicked by Tennessee last night , now their adopted step child and top seeded UAB gets run out of their own gym by 8th seed Western Kentucky today.

I wouldn't either if I claimed to be a Auburn fan
