What they are saying about Andy Kennedy
UAB hit a grand slam hiring Andy Kennedy. Andy played at UAB under Gene Bartow and really helped jump the program. He still holds a number of records. Andy was unbelievable on TV and the job he did at Ole Miss to become the winningest coach in school history speaks for itself.

So happy for my friend @CoachAK13 on returning to his Alma Mater to lead @UAB_MBB . A terrific ball coach and more importantly an even better person. Excited to watch the success of the Blazers for years to come. Coach Bartow would be proud!

Really happy for @CoachAK13 he will bring @UAB_MBB back in a big way. They’ll play an exciting style—and he’s one of the great guys in coaching. We will miss him. Did a great job in studio and on games.

My guy @CoachAK13 really happy for you. @UAB_MBB is fortuanate to have you. I know how much this means to you. You will crush it. I know Coach Bartow is looking down with a big smile on his face. Different than the one when you would launch from another area code. Ha! https://t.co/o3aAOld6Nm
