Marshall was once faced with the discontinuation of our football program and it would have been a sad day for our university , community, and state if it had materialized. The UAB Blazers played The Herd until the "last whistle blew" and played a great game! To discontinue the program would be a disservice to all who have put their hearts into your school, and especially the players and students! Stay Strong Blazers and Play On!!

This decision affects more than just the football program.

will be a sad day for UAB if our football program dissolves. No more tailgating, marching band halftime shows, majorettes or dance line/cheerleaders on the sidelines to cheer on the Blazers. Not everyone can say a dragon roars and breathes fire when their team takes the field but Blazer fans can.

save the program! I've got friends that play. It allows them to receive an education and continue to play the game they love. This would hurt the university

HerdNation stands with UAB football. You have a great team and fan base and it would be a travesty to end the program.

College football in Birmingham is not some passing fad. It's a real thing, a real pastime. UAB deserves its own team with its own existence surviving on its own terms. Everything naysayers have said about the venture have been proven wrong--Blazer football is not a joke, it's not a failure. It's a damn good time and a damn good thing that this city and community get behind. Step back and watch this program grow.

The UA Board of Trustees has to let UAB be UAB.

All 4 of my children attended UAB from 2004-2012....two on academic scholarships, two on band scholarships. All 4 are now successful men and women, secure in their fields. Marching band was the reason 2 of my sons got scholarships. Marching band happens at football games! It's very much needed. It affects much more than just athletics. It was a great college experience.

I'm a die hard Marshall fan, and this UAB team almost gave me a heart attack today! UAB football needs to continue. This program is on the rise, and it would be a disgrace to end it. Keep UAB football alive!
