Good story.

Since John Zenor is an AP writer, was this a nationally offered article that the Idaho paper decided to carry? That or perhaps he is an AP writer on that paper's staff?

It is good when UAB gets noticed in such far away places, but it illustrates that in much of the nation the way UAB's football program was interrupted is not understood as we saw it - as an antiUAB action by the system BOT and their hired hit man. Such a scenario is so foreign to the way their own states work that they just can't comprehend what we saw happen.

Looks like an AP story. Google the article title, "Back from the brink, UAB football in position to rise", and you will see a number of links to different sites including what seems to be an AP site...(AJC also ran it).
