RE: Carr Sports
I was perusing their site just yesterday morning. Super sketchy. What a slimey mess Watts and Co have found themselves in.

You can still find an archive of the website as it existed in December 2014

Watts and the BOT might be throwing Carr under the bus.

RE: Carr Sports
Would be interesting if Carr filed a defamation lawsuit or something along those lines...

RE: Carr Sports
This is weird to say the least. Can you say watergate! All they had to do was leave UAB alone yet it was too tempting to try to pull off the most evil act of the year.

The thieves falling out and sticking knives in each other? If Finis really did re-direct the study in the spring of 2014 ...

RE: Carr Sports
I'd be curious to know how much new revenue Carr Sports has generated since December 2, 2014. How many new clients have hired Carr Sports since that day. How many new projects -- of any size or scope -- have been undertaken since that day.

The answer just might be "none", "none", and "none."

This thought has crossed my mind. I don't think Bill Carr wanted any part of this thing but was drug in when St. John pulled the switcharoo on the point of the study. If that is the case then I really believe they may have to go after UAB for ruining their reputation. I don't see how Carr was in this from beginning as he hired Clark and told him to come to UAB. I think the scope of the Carr report was completely changed in the months after Clark was hired.

RE: Carr Sports
Looks like Carr has taken off like a thief in the night. Looks to me like he produced the study the BOT wanted and was most likely paid well for it soon after he retired and/or closed up shop.

RE: Carr Sports
I just Google Earthed the address listed for CarrSports Consulting, LLC – the same address on their report.

It appears the business runs from a home.
