CSS isn't going to draw from the same accounting practices and my understanding is that they have full access to the numbers. Another thing is that it is a report that's being officially produced for the university, and the bias card has already been played. I can't really envision any sort of tampering at this point considering the scrutiny under, either. Regardless of its contents, that report is going to be a flashpoint.

I wish I was young and naive again.

Why is Cajun such a jerk to everyone.

This data is from the 2012-2013 academic year, but it is incredibly telling of where UAB actually stands when it comes to university subsidies compared to other D-I schools... http://sports.usatoday.com/ncaa/finances/

Your mind will be blown.

Wow

So Alabama used almost $5.8 million of public funds to subsidize athletics? Alert the Board! They'll be so shocked.

33 Other schools with a larger total subsidy.
124 Other schools with a larger % subsidy.

I've pointed that out before and was ridiculed.
