Hopefully by the time that the CSS report comes in we will have so much money pledged and so many pledges made that Watts will have no choice but to restore football, bowling and rifle. But what if he doesn't?

Of course if he doesn't he will be admitting that it was never about money and that it was actually done at the BOT's direction, but Watts doesn't seem to care what anyone thinks about him as long as the BOT has his back and continues to pay him $73,000 a month to in compensation for looking like their stooge.

In addition, right now the Montgomery option is not looking real good because Jack and Jabo are having trouble getting the latest bill which would add to Trustees to the BOT for UAB and UAH out of committee. Believe it or not it is primarily the Huntsville Senators and Representatives in the Senate and House Education committees which are holding the bill hostage. You would think that they would be our natural allies in this fight, which has some suspecting that the BOT is offering the Huntsville legislators something behind the curtain through their lobbyists for their vote.

So what do we do if Watts just flat says "NO" despite the fact that we have plenty of money to bring the cancelled programs back and we are flat out of other options?
