If a news outlet in Charlotte NC is airing this story then #FreeUAB is making its voice heard! @free_UAB @BhamforUAB https://t.co/h6j3o3HWqQ

OSKR analysis shows decision to kill #UABFootball was NOT to save money. http://t.co/JjOh0577L3 Schools that cut football don't thrive.

[Birmingham for UAB @BhamforUAB]

Did men's BBall improve?

Did school's U.S. News rank improve?

Did SAT scores for freshmen improve?

Did enrollment grow?

No. No. No. No.

[Birmingham for UAB @BhamforUAB]

Part of OSKR report includes analysis of 21 schools who cut football between 1985 - 2010. Study asked 4 questions of each school.

[Birmingham for UAB @BhamforUAB]

Independent analysis determines decision to kill #UABfootball was "ill advised." http://t.co/JjOh0577L3 Numbers don't lie.

[Blazernation🔥 @1_Blazernation]

Bruno & Kahn sits on UABOT appointed search committee for president, recommend Watts, Watts then funnel millions to them. #freeUAB #crooks

[Blazer Strong @BlazerStrong]

If a board represents three universities, why would there be a problem with having representation from three universities?

[Birmingham for UAB @BhamforUAB]

Perhaps Ray Watts should hire Carr Sports to audit PR and advertising spending at UAB to see if there is any waste. http://t.co/SaivFACdhO

[Birmingham for UAB @BhamforUAB]

The web of deceit at UAB gets worse: http://t.co/SaivFACdhO Kahn hires Bruno as consultant to oversee PR agency run by...Bruno.

What The Tuscaloosa News doesn't get http://t.co/gxzKkpzjz8 @WarOnDumb taking @tuscaloosanews to task.

[Birmingham for UAB @BhamforUAB]

Killing #UABFootball was supposedly about saving $, dollars now spent on lawyers & PR hacks: http://t.co/TwpG1hVKd9 (shakes head in disgust)
