and you know this how? (I cant wait to hear this)

BTW He has passed up many opportunities that were indeed solid for more money that he signed a contract for. Some never made press.

And I will wait for you to name the opportunities. Not his name was mentioned but a solid job offer.

Bill will get a solid offer just a matter of when. He is too good of a coach to stay stagnant

You will keep waiting because I was told in confidence. Again either how do you know it or STFU and get lost. Heck I'll answer for you. Fact is you don't now jack ****

Someone caught you saying something you couldnt back up so I will STFU now. As Im sure you will do the same since your quote was unanswerable.

So is John Grass.

Maybe he'll like Birmingham, too.

If you offer a salary in the same range he too will be moving on up. But the UAB job isnt as attractive as when Bill accepted the job. The process will take a few years to get the feet back on the ground. John isnt far from retirement in the Alabama system either.

He already is butthurt. Imagine if we take another coach.

No need to be butthurt, just grown men working the system.

We don't need to take their coach. We already have one who wants to be here.

As to the job not being as attractive, Clark's about to get a bunch of brand new facilities to recruit with, including one of the nicest stadiums in the conference.

Your ignorance and prejudice is showing.


As to whether Attalla can back up what he says, I know for a fact that he talks to Bill Clark fairly often. He's consulting on the facilities to be built here. I'm thinking maybe he knows more about what's happening at UAB than some message board yammerhead from another school who wants to talk some smack.

Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

Clark is here today because he cares about uab. The usc(w) job could be offered to him tomorrow and my money is on him not taking it. I know nothing more about the man but what I have seen from the outside, but He is a man on a mission I my opinion. He literally took the time to sign and reply(handwritten) to emails that were sent to him by nobodies(me) in our fan base. I would be shocked if he even considered another job before uab plays another down of football. Some people realize life isn't all about money. My gut feel is Clark is one of them.

You're right. The UAB job isn't as attractive as it was. It's MORE attractive! 247sports.com has our recruiting class ranked 48th in the country right now! Really good players are coming. Facilities are coming. After all these years, we FINALLY have the Birmingham business community behind us.

When we come back, we're going to be stronger than ever before. Before December 2nd, we always had a dark cloud hovering over us over whether or not the program would shut down. Now, we can say that they tried to shut us down, but we wouldn't let them. I know I'm getting ahead of myself, but if we get a new city-owned stadium, to go with our new facilities...UAB could potentially become the next Boise.

The reason he's renting in Birmingham? It's a little far to commute from Piedmont every day.

Just Show Up fan already got Bill's bags packed for him. Imagine that.

Some of them have gotten over the butthurt and are happy for an alumnus done good. Others, ...

You must be real nervous, you must feel Bill is close to being offered the Memphis job.

Your looking through long term glasses about UABs attractiveness. Facilities arent built overnight even with approved funding in place.

If you have the right coach someone will hire them within 5 years unless your UAT, Ohio St or one of the few destination jobs.

And if you're gonna troll, at least use correct grammar. See how I used "you're"? I'm sure you'll blame your lack of knowledge on it's early in the morning. If you can troll this early in the morning, you can use correct grammar this early in the morning.

Stop being that poster.

No when you are told something in confidence and told not to blab it you do it or you lose that source. You are clueless so be gone or I will kick you out myself.

Nope. Just mocking you.

Ok, I've had enough of his trolling. He is banned from UAB boards.

Shame to waste a good Holy Grail reference on one so breathtakingly stupid.

Good. Goober was stone ignorant.

No, he's just one of those people who believe UAB people should live in sackcloth and ashes.

Damndest thing.

Sure about that?

Article from 3 months ago:
"Sacrifices are performed on both sides of football marriages. When Bill became head coach at UAB, he moved into an apartment in the area, while his family lived about 90 minutes away. Jennifer traveled to Birmingham during the week, and of course on gamedays. "
