RE: BOT PR firm pulling out all the stops
I understand the " most successful fundraising" thingy is PR firm related, but how could the PR firm control the award to Dr. Watts?

I don't think its a coincidence that this information came to light today(article is from 2 days ago and "honorees" are normally given a "heads-up" before the article goes to press). Also, the Kent State president is also investigating possibility of doing away w/football.

I doubt those giving out that award spent much time investigating the situation.

Linda Lucas was trying hard to do a Garrison impression, leading the band at halftime and hugging the director.

Too little, too late, Linda. Your legacy will be "Ray Watts is the leader UAB needs."

Let's see. 1 program ends football, over 300 hundred keep it.

Let's praise the 1 program that ends it because obviously they know better than the other 300.

Jerk offs.

I did my part to yell "Fire Ray Watts" right in her ear when the students struck up the chant. I'm pretty sure we lead the NCAA in home protest streak (9 games.)
