RE: BOT
Some more of that fiscal responsibility.
Quote:The board approved a resolution to increase the budget for the renovations and additions of Sewell-Thomas Stadium from $35 million to $42.6 million and award a construction contract to Rabren General Contractors Inc. of Auburn as the low bidder for the construction. The increase was the result of a variety of factors, including higher than expected bids for the construction, according to the firm managing the project.
So, anyone know anything about Humphrey?

I'm not sure what you're trying to say or refer to, but the Karen you saw was Karen Brooks, who has been on the Board for quite a while, who has been elected as President Pro Tem.

If you read my original post I just ask if the lady that was named pres pro tem was a new appointment or was she already on the board.

That said. Yea fiscal responsibility. Snicker.
It's not the fact that it is over budget. Without knowing the situation it's hard to judge. Hundreds of things could factor in that. It's the fact that it is being done in the first place and the OCS is not.
Especially for a team that has been a bottom feeder in the SEC for the past five years. The only reason they have had NCAA appearances is from riding the coat tails of the strong teams.

Karen Brooks has been on the Board for quite a while. The only new member was Barbara Humphrey, a UAB graduate

RE: BOT
So, to review:
Karen Brooks, who is not new to the board, is the new president pro tem.
Karen Brooks is blond.
Karen Brooks is not Barbara Humphrey.
Andi Hurst is retiring.
Cubby Bryant is stepping down as pro tem, is 69, and probably will never die, per his contract with Satan.
Barbara Humphrey may or may not be blond, and may or may not be a former UAB athlete, wife of a former Bama athlete, mother of Bama and UAB athletes.
Dumping 42 million into a baseball field that doesn't make money is fiscally responsible.
Fess St. John is a putz.
