The fact that they feel that they need to do this in fact shows that there is a clear problem with system governance.

You're absolutely right! With this commercial, the UABOT just gave the #FreeUAB movement credibility.

I think the pr campaign is in part to show SACS "see we've changed" you can recertify us no problems, no need to look under the rugs & mattresses nor dark corners for violations. Only thing is if people/SACS are gullible enough to think they won't go back to "business as usual" afterwards

Every move they make has to be countered. If they put something in print, jump on it. The BoT seems to forget that they only visit UAB; we live here...this is OUR HOUSE! We must always defend our home. Thanks Jack.

I just wrote Scarbinsky and Archibold emails suggesting that they write about the use of public money for their self serving commercials.

Did the Carr report account for the cost of a commercial?

The bammer "A" is the most effeminate logo in all of sports.

It's actually very similar to many Alabama fans. It has a mullet.

Were you seriously expecting them to use "UAT" along with the others? They use EVERY TACTIC to remind UAB and UAH that they are small potatoes in the system. The legal relationship is never allowed to mitigate how the BOT and its minions see the system of the Lord (of the manor) and the subservient peasants.

The BOT has had almost 50 years to adjust the representation on the board and it is still the way it was before UAB and UAH existed. Just like with the segregated "Greek" system, it was still pre 1963 until the administration got caught preventing change.

Public relation work at its paid for finest, UAB logo in the center of UA and UAH. I guess that could be interpreted as the crown jewel of the UA system?

What did you expect from a school whose mascot is a euphemism for menstruation?

I'm an Eastern Michigan alum and consider myself to be pretty unbiased on this issue. So let me just say that the BOT's commercial absolutely reeks of fear.

My son and I saw the commercial while watching TV.

We then looked at each other and started laughing.

What a POS product. While exhibiting desperation, the quality was horrible. SMH.

As long as I've been at UAB, I Never seen them advertise all three schools as a system. They must truly be fearful of losing this fight.

I was thinking the exact same thing. They must be hearing footsteps in the dark... We'll see as this saga rolls on into the next phase which is today, if not mistaken.

I just saw it today for the first time. Sure does come across as an act of apprehension. Hope that no one in their right minds fall for this crap.
