You're too nice Attalla.

Then again, we can't say in public what he really is.

He fools no one - not now.

If he uses the same false numbers process then I look for the closing of the Hospital later this year.

Was he asked about the integrity of the data report?

Did Watts use the term "broo hah hah"? If that is a quote then he has no clue.

He is actually correct in that statement. He didn't mention that their plan was to make Mackin the fall guy though.

Indeed he did.

Is it the 15th yet?

That in itself is an arrogant, childish description of a serious matter.

Quote:Watts claims that he did meet with UAB boosters despite what their letter to the chancellor says. Boosters only raise $2 million #FreeUAB

Watts just basically called Boosters / FF Members liars.

Again. This is not the first time.

“@SocaMelly: Watts says we have more UA alumni on the BoT because there is a higher % of UA alumni in Alabama than UAB alumni #FreeUAB”

Wow! WHO IS THIS GUY?

What does that have to do with the price of eggs in China? This man is a BOT puppet with Fess's hand planted firmly in his rectum.

Another sign of incompetence. He is clueless!

The more he talks, the more mad I am that I can't find a job paying nearly a million dollars a year.

I heard warning sirens going off at 10:00. I think they were connected to the Ray Watts BS detector.

This is a joke right. They have more alums on the BOT because that's the way they want it. This guy is terrible...how in the hell did he get the job....wait a minute ...oh those UA alums on the board.

At the next town meeting someone should ask Watts:

1. Since its all Margison and Mackin's faults, do you give them "permission" to talk freely outside of any non-disclosure agreements without retribution, financial or otherwise?
2. Since you spoke to UAB boosters and they say you have not, what are their names?
3. How can you justify raising $1 BILLION dollars with nothing allocated for athletics? Even according to your bogus $49M number that's less than 5% for football.
