I never got one that said don't read. when i was there it was more like "don't post on this site" Memos. I think pretty much everyone knew we were all going to read it regardless.

Yeah, I mean I actually can understand them not wanting employees posting on here at times. People will take that info and run with it like it came directly from the University, but not read flamefans at all?? Please..

This. Everyone reads it and brings it up in the office. You just won't see many of them posting here.

I find it amusing that some people around the 'Net actually cite Liberty's relatively lukewarm football performance as the primary reason to not invite us to the Sun Belt, a conference that deemed Georgia State worthy of FBS. Don't get me wrong, nothing against Georgia State at all; several people have said they will vote to invite us, plus they have us scheduled for 2015 regardless, so I'm practically a Panthers fan at this point. Georgia State deserves their chance, and so does Liberty. I just think it's telling that they'll give Georgia State the benefit of the doubt with a brand-new program, but then say Liberty needs to "prove itself" at the FCS level.

Anyway, that's my two cents on that. I hope Pres. Falwell's "almost-flight" to New Orleans is a sign of good news to come.

Internet poster will citi any thing and every thing when they truely want something else. They do not look into all the facts like Liberty being in a conference that did not receive and auto bid to the FCS playoffs.

Finally, someone with reason! It's been almost a comedy of errors for some of the reasons we have missed out.

Really, I don't think it would matter if they did. As you said, it's ultimately just an excuse, which was my point as well. I think if it wasn't "you haven't made it to the playoffs," it would be "you've only made it to the playoffs X times." I just think it's funny that some still bother to cite that stuff, when others are content to just say the truth: that they just don't believe a private, Christian, conservative school has any business joining the Sun Belt or the FBS.

Thankfully, there are at least some Sun Belt fans like you who will readily accept us, and I really believe that number will grow rapidly if people actually get to see us in action at the FBS level.

BCX,
I feel like Liberty Fans just have to look at it in the context that Liberty University is located inside a sinful world and Satan will do everything in his power to keep Liberty from spreading the Word of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I look at it this way, if it is in the Lords will for Liberty to move to the Sun Belt, every message poster can shout at the top of there lungs but it will not change the Lords will.

The one word that I would like to say to all Liberty fans is what every the out come is for Liberty football give the Lord the praise and glory.

Eastern Kentucky president tweets to student that there are no slots available for FCS schools to move up to FBS....

@BShroats5 Not sure. But we're not moving for now. There are no slots available for FCS schools to move, even if we wanted to.

The people over on CSNbbs are starting to hear that the Sun Belt has closed the door to FCS move-ups. The question is, is that because they've decided to add us or another school and have no more slots, or have they decided to just invite UMass and call it a day? Or, as you suggest, stick with 11 until JMU changes their mind? (Honestly, these people don't understand "no"...)

We should note that the EKU Pres tweet was in response to @BShroats5 asking
when do you see the next opportunity to move into FBS ranks if the Sun Belt does expand with a different school?

It amazes me how quickly folks jump on stuff and go all emotional.

An, NO, I do not have any inside info. I just choose not to be swayed with every tweet or speculative statement.

I keep going back to the rumors that we were merely working on how LFSN will fit into the Belt hoping that those were correct and all the rest is just other fans hoping they are in and not us.

And read the tweets in context. They were talking about the next step for EKU if the sunbelt goes with someone else. Since most feel EKU is not ready for the SBC now, they are not even a candidate. Who knows, but I wouldn't take every little tweet from whoever as gospel.
