It has been an long, weird off-season for UAB football, which was shut down in December after a 6-6 season amid backlash, and eventually reinstated on June 1. While the move really hurts a program that was building some momentum under head coach Bill Clark, the most important thing is that the Blazers will see the field again. Today, UAB Athletics announced that football would return for the 2017 season. They’ve also announced a timetable for the reinstatement of the bowling and rifle teams, which were cut along with football.
