Quote:"I voted for putting restrictions on UAB without thinking it all the way through," Thomas said. "... I'm pleased with the progress they are making toward their goals. If UAB lost its athletic programs, it might lose students, and that would be a loss of revenue. You could shut it down and lose the same amount of money or more. You might not save what you think you would."

… so why would a person vote for something of that magnitude without thinking it all the way through?

Was he rushed? Was he pushed? Was he trying a please someone on the Board? I wished he had explained WHY he didn't think it all the way through.
