Who knows if it's about football, but I doubt it's about lacrosse or the formation of a crew team

Who is "FreeUAB"? Who are "they"?

"They" are a group of people who are fighting for the autonomy of UAB. "They" do more than gripe on a message board. "They" take off from their jobs to promote equality in UA System. "FreeUAB" is not a self-centered, egotistical, nor narrow minded movement. Just people who genuinely care about UAB and its future. I am sure you knew that, but just in case.

Save your lecture...I don't need it.

"FreeUAB" isn't an official group of people or any particular persons. That's why I'm wondering who is providing this sort of information. How can "FreeUAB" have a big announcement. "FreeUAB" isn't an organization.

Can't wait to see what the news is. I had the rumor confirmed by a reputable third party.

I guess we shall find out shortly... I understand your question now... FreeUAB is the movement, movements generally have leaders. So my assumption is that someone who is/has been out front put it out there. I wish I knew more.

Could one assume that #freeUAB was making an announcement today with expectations that something good was going to come from the ATF meeting tomorrow? Now we are looking to counter.

Is there any significance to Rep Williams appearing in a 20 minute segment of Capital Journal (10:30 pm on APT) last night and discussing all sorts of topics but never mentioning anything about bills concerning UAB?

The significance is that there are other aspects of his job.

We need everyone who can possibly make it to the special Athletics Task Force meeting at Bartow Arena to be there. First of all I know you will want to be there to hear what I think will be very good news.

But more than that, understand that representatives from CSS are going to be in attendance. I am sure that Watts has assured them that those who are concerned about football are just the "vocal few". We need to demonstrate that is a lie with numbers st this meeting.

You folks who are big into social media, please get the word out.
