A Sea Of Red

Any ideas on who will be the graduation speaker this year?

Since I am graduating and i believe there a few other 09 grads on here i though id ask and see who we thought might make a stop in the burg to speak at graduation.

i've heard two things, but they could both be rumors...Sarah Palin or Bear Grylls from Man vs Wild

bear would be so cool. But only if he uses his urine in an interesting way.

Bear would be cool - if Liberty is looking for another Chuck Norris. Can we please get someone that is not an entertainer!!!!

And not a politician either...

When is the last time LU has not had either an entertainer or politician at graduation. For the most part, is that not what most universities do for speakers?

Wish it was Tebow. or Dwight Howard

We've had a lot of preachers as well over the years. Not sure who or when the last one was.

two words...Tony...Dungy...

Didn't we have Franklin Graham a few years ago?

Back in the day, we were heavy big time preachers and politicians. Of course Ollie North didn't fit into either category even though he was certainly political.

Why can't we get someone from Liberty who has been successful at what he or she does that is not a preacher?
LC did that in '07

We do that at convo on a semi-regular basis. But graduations typically are more for external splash than the grads themselves.

I admit I used to be a bit disappointed that I could never get a convo invite back when I was in my television days. The work I do these days wouldn't be as scintillating to 18- to 22-year-olds.

He goes to Florida, not Miami or Coastal

you might want to do a little research before you make statement like that. over the last few years, the gators, the buckeyes and penn st. are running neck and neck with off the field trouble.

Toby Mac
Karl Hess

Those would be good convo speakers even though they have done great things

I doubt he could do it in-season...but I would love to see JOSH HAMILTON come and offer his testimony as graduation.

Ha, ha........Karl might need to have his speech edited.

Since BJ has been here the longest, it would be nice if he could help pick the graduation speaker.

Anyone could be better than the one we had in 98...Dr. John Borek was just so enlightening

SLY!
