Yeah, all of those Jesuit university presidents are suddenly going to embrace a fundamentalist school into their clique.

We’re talking about the A-10, Richmond is not in the A-10 for football, obviously. Charlotte and Richmond both represent fairly large cities that give the A-10 a presence in the southeast. Needless to say noone wants or needs Lynchburg's viewing base which LU doesn't even dominate. Also, both have a rich tradition in athletics that go back further than LU has existed.

I've gotten to know Bernadette (Bernie) some in the past year. (Head of officials for ACC and SoCon wbb) What I know oof her, I don't think she'll be coming after Liberty or any school like it anytime soon with her new conference...
