No way this guy will ever be able to return to Birmingham or UAB IMO. He is really lucky this didn't turn worse as it was getting very close to getting violent.

Those 1% of my University's "fans" need to be expelled! Period.

That pisses me off to no extent. Dumb arse kids.

Wow. I hope the University of Alabama is satisfied. Not only did they destroy a program and school, but now they have divided a community.

But, so long as they keep getting trophies, I guess everything is okay...

Good on those police officers for maintaining composure and not having to resort to tear gas to subdue the protestors.

this is just the start. UAB will only have intramurals by 2020.This decision is designed to abolish UAB athletics in general.

Without having looked at UAB's numbers, it is tough to see how shutting down a D-1 football program is what's best for any university. They gave themselves the death penalty. There is no way this can have a positive effect on the future of UAB's athletic department. Shut down basketball, baseball, track, wrestling....anything but your football program.

I didn't see any violence.
Watts did what the Board told him to do.
