The less said of the previous regime the better, though we could spend a few paragraphs detailing its rapid demise. Let's look forward: UAB has a new coach, Bill Clark, and unlike the old coach he seems invested in the entire structure of the Blazers' program, not just the locks on the front door.

These guys are next on my "payback" list.

I think I'm going to skip the trip to Austin and go to UAB instead.

I remember them beating us in '95 when they were a start-up I-AA.

VERY low point for me.

Will be nice to see us give them a butt whippin' in person.

It was fun last year at Southern Miss.

I expect this one to be fun too.
