Big day for football in Birmingham (and beyond)
January 5th, 2013 · Comments Off · Sports
It didn’t seem as though anything could be better than seeing a record crowd of 59,135 at today’s BBVA Compass Bowl at Legion Field. Fate’s decided Birmingham native Joe Webb will give it a try…

October 12th, 2012 · Comments Off · Sports

It’d be a shame though if we didn’t take a moment and at least acknowledge the institutions in the immediate metro Birmingham area that signed student-athletes on February 1.
