Yep. Pretty sure it was a fill in game from another game being canceled.

One off games should count in future negotiations.In fact why not do future negotiations right the and there.



Looks like Nelson Schexnayder gave them a 2-for-1 as well.

Well maybe because:

As a top-tier research institution, UAB has maintained this status for over three decades. Key details regarding UAB's research status include: Decades-Long Status: UAB has been recognized as a top research institution since 1994.Funding Records: In fiscal year 2023, UAB reached an institutional record of \(\$747.5\) million in research funding.Distinction: UAB is distinct from other Alabama institutions, such as the University of Alabama (UA), which achieved R1 status later in 2018.

Not to mention a medical school

Not to mention a medical school

Might need to break down R1's among med school and no med school....one could argue attaining R1 without having a med school was harder and thus a bigger accomplishment
