Having one also makes a statement about the state of and support for our program. No, we won't have UA or AU or UGA level facilities. No one with a brain expects us to. What we do need is decent facilities that are on a competitive level with our conference mates and other teams that we recruit against.

1. Anyone with the reading comprehension skills of a 5th grader would know I didn't say UAB should/could/would compete with UGA or Auburn.

2. I used them as we call... an example of two different approaches to indoor practice facilities.

3. Birmingham isn't Seattle, the other facilities are necessary year around but an indoor practice facility is only needed the 5 days a year it rains during practice.

4. Recruits pay little attention to indoor practice facilities unless they rise to level of Auburn's.

My reading comprehension is fine, buckeroo.

You shouldn't call people names.

Thanks, dad.

Buckeroo is a term of endearment used when someone gets too big for his britches - like when he says my reading comprehension is like a 5th grader when in fact, I was spot on.

However, if I'm wrong, I'll serve my ban.
