Episode 26: Tim Stephens, former UAB Athletics SID Assistant, Graduate, Author

Join me as I talk with Tim Stephens! For those of you that don't know Tim, he was recruited to come to UAB by Gene Bartow. Not as an athlete, but as a student to work in the athletics office. That turned into Tim working with the Kaleidoscope campus newspaper, doing photography for multiple sports at UAB, being the color analyst for UAB football broadcasts with Gary Sanders, and his career in sports journalism. Tim is also a co-author for the book Ever Faithful, Ever Loyal: The Timothy Alexander Story. This book shares the story of Timothy Alexander, former UAB football player, advocate for the football program shut down, UAB graduate, and current motivational speaker. Tim shares some amazing behind the scenes stories of his time at UAB, the legacy of Gene Bartow, his work with Tim Alexander, and so much more! You don't find many people that have had firsthand experiences in UAB athletics like Tim. Be sure to follow my social pages @DragonsDenEFEL on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram! Go Blazers!
