I am not emotional at all and im not a :koolaid chugger like some on FF. but this FBS stuff is NOT happening this go around...at least try to get in the SoCon or CAA, win some championships and then see what happens later. there is a segment of LU people who are more moderate now and then the Bilble bumpers who act like this is still LBC from the 70's. you do not have to abandon the mission, but geez, lighten up with the radical stuff.

You're not going to gain favor with anybody over there by posting Rick Warren quotes about society, if that's what your goal is. If your goal is to just annoy them since they're excluding us, job well done I guess.
I thought an official FF edict had been handed down that only Sly would post over there from now on - I stopped even looking at threads over there. The realignment process is frustrating enough. It makes it worse when I subject myself to the utter crap certain folks over there say about LU.

We've been so public about going FBS, is it really even an option to move to another FCS conference when they know we're going to bolt at first chance?

Bingo.

Personally I don't see any reason to leave anyway.

Just because JLFJR or the AD havent gone on record doesnt mean that work hasnt been going on. As LUConn and Im sure others have mentioned, everybody goes into a full on CHernobyl mode with every announcement or rumor that doesnt include Liberty...or even does...our time will come but we dont have to get all crazy and make a move we may regret because we dont want to be "left behind" (insert Jesus Juke here)
Translation: JLFJR has not yet responded to my many urgent PM's

Also nice way to toss in Tim LaHayes work.

Because it's in question whether the Big South will have an autobid in the not too distant future?

VMI is rumored to the SoCon, along with possibly Coastal. Lose those two, and we've got no post-season guarantee. We'll be Big South champs every season, but that and a buck fifty will get you a bottle of water at the Qwicki Mart.

As long as the BSC keeps it's autobid, I like it for football. Basketball could use an upgrade in competition if we ever want to get to the point where we're looking at RPI (not that we're even close to that).

Does anybody think that LU online could be a bigger negative than politics? We are literally taking students from every single one of these schools. I don't think there's any other school that can say that. Football has been proven to recruit students. Why would they want to help us out? They would make us look legitimate to anybody who may be under the impression that we're related to DeVry or U of Phoenix.

Before or after taxes? Why not splurge for the 2/2.50?

VMI and Coastal are long shots for the Socon. More likely Mercer,ETSU and/or Kennesaw

Keep in mind Brent is getting his info from somebody in San Marcos who has a western perspective. I'd be more interested in a South Alabama or Troy insider's perspective.

True... but you did vouch for him as being credible at least.

hahaha - no I'm not the Kerry of this discussion. Just saying that Brent is a credible source - and he's citing an east coast team as a lead to get the WKU spot. Now if there's another spot then maybe SLY has a point

Does not appear that there have been formal discussions between JMU and the Sun Belt, though.

It's unclear what kind of interest (if any) JMU has in the Sun Belt

This is the JMU beat writer
