Sad day in college sports, I always hate to see a program fold. UAB will be the first FBS program to fold since the University of the Pacific in 1995. To make things even tougher, the Blazers became bowl-eligible for only the third time ever after winning this past Saturday.
BREAKING: UAB is firing athletic director Brian Mackin & will announce later this week it will be shutting down football program per source.

Looks like people have had the death of UAB football in their sights for quite awhile now...
