Yeah, I'll believe it when I see it.

Changes from top to bottom? Probably means we're getting new uniforms.

Does top to bottom mean he will fire himself?

Or give himself a contract extension like they gave Callaway?

I feel like we're cursed," junior defensive end Diaheem Watkins said. "We've got great players. Coming out of high school, I had a lot of places to go to. I'm not giving up. I love UAB. I love Birmingham. I love my teammates. I don't want to move. I want to stay here and play."

Am I reading to much in to this. Does Diaheem know something that we don't officially know. UAB could be seriously thinking about shutting down the football program.

Boy, where have I heard this before?

I'm guessing some of his teammates may be thinking about transferring.

If we take off the green glasses, can we honestly blame them? Seriously?

Are you still here? J/k UB, stay as long as you like. Nothing wrong with keeping it real.

Why change needs to take place immediately.

Today...
USA beat a winless team.
UAB lost to one.

FIRE MACKIN AND MCGEE!!!

Yes, you're reading too much into that.

Yeah, if they decided to shut the program Down, the defensive line would be the first people they told.

What stupid talk.

Do we seriously have to have a referendum on our existence after every loss? Talk like that does more damage than any BOT member could ever do.

Ok. I guess we will find out Sunday before the UNC game.

Reading way too much.

If we don't still have a football team on Monday, I'll buy you a Coke.

Finis & PBJ are busy right now anyway.

Look, if anyone on the team doesn't have a fire within em, something is wrong.

Let's let McGee do what he thinks needs to be done.
