Reporter, I don't know what you did when you posted those links. I tried to reduce the font size but it won't take the changes.

Yes, I tried to reduce the font from 5 to 3 when I posted. This is what came out and I can't edit the font or title. cry

I'll try something else. They may disappear for a few minutes.

The oft repeated mantra of "possible criminal behavior" was employed by the Thames boosters during the attempted firings to deflect IHL and public attention from the facts of the AAUP investigation. A careful reading of the hearing transcript will reveal that criminal or illegal behavior was never charged by the university nor mentioned by their attorneys. It's hard to believe there is anybody left who hasn't figured out that they were duped by the administration on this issue.

The AAUP investigation of a university vice president's credentials dealt only with matters of public record such as employment status, rank, department, and tenure status at a state institution. There is nothing protected or confidential about such information.

Gallaspy owes a lot of people apologies, Glamser, Stringer, and Fleming. He is spouting the old athletics line in saying Southern was in financial trouble under Fleming. Not so. That's when we turned the corner and started bringing in research money. Remember Don Cotten that Fleming hired? Remember the new Carnegie classification we got before Fleming left? Gallaspy is just sucking up to the athletics interests. Not unusual

Gallaspy proves why a university should never allow an athletic trainer to set policy. What an idiot. And what an XXXXX to tell the Student Printz to write a grant if they want to move out of the basement. These @#$% like Gallaspy and Thames have no idea what public education, tax-payer funded education, is about and wouldn't survive a minute in the "real world" where they can't rely on tax-payer funded facilities and their status as employees of a non-profit public institution of higher learning in order to get grants that are supposed to contribute to the common good rather than line the pockets of the few well-connected good 'ole boys.

Yes, Angeline is back. I tried to stay away, but these neanderthals get my juices cookin'.

Glad to see you back. Tone it down, we've got lawyers on the prowl.--mod

Welcome back. I, for one, have missed your caustic comments.
