Bingo, on the Barners. They are half the noise in all of this IMO. To them, Paul Bryant Jr. is the face of evil and he's solely responsible for this.I don't live in Alabama anymore so I know very little about the whole UAB situation. That said, it looks like the only people "upset" about all this is a few fans that probably supported their football program. They ignore or fail to realize that nobody came to UAB's games. The other group that complains are the barners that really don't care but somehow blame Paul Bryant JR. for all of UAB's woes.
It seems simple to me that your income has to be larger than your outgo in order to survive.
UAB didn't make this happen.
It's just leftover frustration of being a Barner and always being #2 in the state. So Barners that weren't even alive during Coach Bryant's life hate everything Bama and this UAB thing is a rallying point for them because of the connection to Coach Bryant.
It also allows them to perpetuate their "moral superiority" that has become a talking point with them over the last few years. It's literally sickening to me when a Barn fans acts like Auburn University is somehow "better" than Bama. It's just a brainwashing job of a few folks who started selling this lie that Bama is somehow immoral and that they are somehow morally superior.
It just proves that Barners would join any movement that they perceive is anti-Bama!
