Sidenote: Has anyone else heard that the University is starting to restrict the number of students they are admitting?

Saban certainly contributed to the growth we have seen at UA. But Robert Witt got the ball rolling with his growth with quality vision. Sadly, the presidents that came after him have not emphasized quality, just growth.
The state Senate just passed an anti DEI bill, so hopefully, if passed in the House too, that will remove DEI from UA and allow for a return to the raising of admission standards.
