Culverhouse is a pos and his father was no saint either. Terrible family all around.

Cool. A month from now you can prove it with a photo of the back of the check endorsed by Bama and prove you're a man of honor.

Mad props. I wish the administration at LSU had a quarter of the integrity it takes to do that

The University of Alabama's board of trustees has voted to return a $21.5 million gift from Hugh Culverhouse Jr. — the school's biggest donor — and take his name off its law school. The move comes after Culverhouse urged businesses and prospective students to boycott the university and the state over Alabama's new abortion law.


I’m fixin to retire, I’m planning on buying a place a little further south to spend the winter, AL has moved way the frick up the list of possible locations.

One of the other articles said returning his money was already on the table before he ever came out with his boycott idea.

He is an a-hole and was trying to tell them how to run their school. He had already been a tremendous thorn in their paw.

So, UA did something they were going to do anyway, and timed it to get friendly press from the Right?

More like the straw that broke the camel’s back situation

Why do you always have to be a contrarian douche?

You do realize they're going to take a ton of heat from low information sky screamers?

If a big donor starts thinking he can run a school, he needs to be kicked to the curb.

But the timing is entertaining.
