So, do we know of any players who are transferring out?

I heard a rumor that Mike Brown, Asa Chapman and Chris Summers were all leaving, but I'm not sure that it's public knowledge yet... Hope I don't get in trouble for breaking news on here :(

lol...considering they are graduating (not transferring) come May (or have already graduated in Asa's case) I dont think you have anything to worry about

Really? I have a good source that is telling me both Mike and Asa are going to enroll at Richmond? and Summers was thinking about transferring to NC A&T...

Is that not true?

lol :lol: I have it on good authority that they all are out of eligibility and have no reason for filing for an extra year (and if they did would probably have their cases laughed out of the room)

I have it on good authority that BJ doesn't have a sarcasm detector.

Is this supposed to be a joke? If not, I would cut ties with whomever your "good source" is haha.

Can we be serious for once? We have a new coach so it’s very reasonable to expect a few transfers. I know there’s people out there with some information.

I would think with such an upgrade in coaching an the potential to be FBS soon that it would be silly to transfer. Maybe I am just optimistic?

I'm not sure. I beg not to get into a whole FCS v. FBS debate, but I really don't think we're moving up for a little while. Granted, I have no doubt the first chance we get, we're gone.

By some moves the Big South just made I think they are planning for Liberty to depart in the next couple of years.

Yeah, hopefully we're going to be gone from the Big South soon.

I heard all the information hasn't been made public yet. But when we here the whole story it will make more sense. So let's with hold judgement.

And lets wait for BJ's resident scribe to fill us in. :fineprint (Purple, only one "e" in judgment).

Even if we arent moving for a couple of years, you know the coaching staff is pitching it to prospects like its happening tomorrow.

Look at RVAparks' avatar.

I haven't heard anything but it wouldn't surprise me at al to have a few players move on.

So what does adding Longwood to the conference do to help the conference? It’s like adding Campbell, but worse. Does KK not realize once we ditch the conference, and SBU is not far behind, that the league will only have 5 football playing members? That coveted auto-bid? Gone. Man, we can’t get out of this sinking ship fast enough.
