If he doesn't resign they should immediately fire him.
I'd say 99% of us aren't surprised. There are 1 or 2 that are probably surprised based on their comments the past 2 days. just sayin...

My point is simply that Merritt is incentivized to jump the gun on this issue. Jerry is likely on the way out as we speak, but I'm wary of Merritt's "sources".

To say this is premature is an understatement as evidenced by his statement yesterday.

I'm so not looking forward to the same old script: Resignation, apology, emotional interviews on the Christian talk show circuit, invited speaking engagements, calls for restoration, restored back into leadership.

Hope he disappears into anonymity permanently and quietly repents and restores his relationship with God and his family.

"One of the sex pics problems started when Jerry [Falwell] was sending some nudes of Becki to Ben and accidentally cc’d most of the executive staff of Liberty University."

There's a paywall. Who is Ben?
Crosswhite?
Who is LW?

I really don't understand what else could be needed to make this happen. Outside of assembling the board to make it official, I can't imagine they are looking for more detail to make a decision.
In cases like this there could be 10 million reasons why it takes a little longer to move. Time zones, tying up loose ends, writing a public press release, etc.
I am sure the BOT's are doing the right thing to benefit LU and everyone involved. I trust them to do the right thing.
$10m indeed...

Also remember that Jonathan Merritt is a well-connected Liberty grad

Their first name on the list, makes them irrelevant. Like some other groups, they actually think they were influential in this process. LOL.
Yeah. There are some good names on there but a twenty-something alum doesn't past the laugh test.
