This is what is going to sink him with the faculty senate.

Exactly! They're (Faculty) not stupid, yet he wants them to act as if they are. He's trying to blame the media for this now?

He's had more than ample time to do just that before he supposedly went rogue and stuck his chest out saying, it was "his call", trying to get everyone to focus on him and not his lord and master that gave the order & blessing to do what was done. Now that just about everyone's locked and loaded on him, he's pointing fingers at the media, now this is their fault? If I were Archibald, Scarbinsky and/or Whitmire, I'd really dog his tracks after that! What a petulant bastard!

And it was debunked by the School of Business in less than 48 hours.

If so, where is a written summary of how our school of business debunked this report? I would love to see that.

Im still surprised to have not seen an official and numerical quality assessment on the Carr report, from both a pro Blazer source and a neutral source. There was a national article recently but it was not a particularly rigorous analysis.

Not the school as a whole but a least one of the faculty at the school of Business.

I'm hoping that someone will post a transcript from the faculty senate meeting. I'm also surprised that AL.com and other media outlets have not run a story based on the business professor's rebuttal of the Carr Report.

He might as well have said "The Germans (system BOT) will now allow us to govern together what is left of what was a great nation (undergrad UAB)".

Damn, that's not very encouraging...

We're thinking alike. I sent an email to to Kevin and John with the link to the "it's the media's fault" remark. I thought they would "enjoy" it.

By the way in several emails going back and forth over the last few days, both Scarbinsky and Archibold say that they are not done with Mr. Watts, so look for more columns with our favorite ******* in a starring role.

Maybe someone can email Whitmire the link.
