Who were the guys in blue and gold warmups at the game Saturday? They sat lower level at Bartow.

I saw them, too. I figured they were some high school team in town for something.

I thought maybe some of the Pittsburg football team.

I don't think the blue was dark enough to be Pitt.

Ramsay High School Boys Varsity Team...

That is something I wish that every Birmingham City School would do at least once a year is to plan a "field trip" to see a UAB basketball game or other sporting event, so that they can get to know the athletic program that represents their city. The Women's team have an afternoon game on Wednesday, and it's a safe bet that an ocean of middle school kids are going to be there for that one, & their presence and enthusiasm is historic. The ladies take it to another level when this kind of atmosphere is on hand.

And its a good recruiting tool
