There’s a few that can help qualify the other options in the poll :lol:

Oh most definitely! I voted Freeze, Sell Outs, and 10 Top 25 wins. Those three are huge keys to breeding consitency, tradition, fan base, recruiting, national recognition, actual big wins, and so much more!

If #1 is true, many of the others will happen.

Hugh Freeze stays on board through at least 2030.

Obvious answer and assumes current trajectory.

We go to 10 straight bowls starting in 2020.

Again, this is a mark of consistent success.

We have three first round draft picks prior to 2030.

I don't care if we recruit top 25 class talent if we can DEVELOP that talent.

The best way for those other things to happen is if Freeze stays.

Very true. Meanwhile, the more of the other things happen, the more likely he doesn't. It's an enigma wrapped in a conundrum. 8)

#1 is definitely the linchpin, especially given the very quick success he is showing in recruiting...
And yes oldflame...an enigma even the Riddler would be proud of...

I choose Freeze 3 times! If he stays, the rest will happen.

Of course, keeping HCHF is a must, but I opted for wins and ranking as I think that will take care of crowd size and recruiting ability.

Hard for me to decide which one, thus I say: all of the above.

Freeze till 2030 should be a given.
P5 IMHO will never happen but it would be great if it would happen. Freeze will win with three stars but imagine having a large pool of 4 and 5 stars to take.
10 bowl games.

No offense to Freeze, but my 3:
1) Sell out more games than not
2) Host College Gameday
3) Beat 10 top 25 teams.

Freeze staying is no guarantee of any of the things listed. I hope he does stay and is successful.

Going to 10 straight bowl games would be great, but does not necessarily mean we have a good team. Winning only half of your games does not make you good.

Exactly. LU would have qualified for a bowl last 12 years of FCS record wise...

#1 - He and his staff have dramatically changed the trajectory and expectations in less than one year. I’m signing up for 10 more years of that. (If it were only that easy)
# 4 - Jerry’s dream
#10 - if you win Top 25 games each year/regularly, the program is relevant nationally

I agree, but he isn't the only good coach out there.

I thought about that too... and I hope to see it. However, it doesn't necessarily mean that our team has "made it." It will, however, mean that our team is shown on NBC. :lol:

I love sports and of course I am a BAMA fan. Sports at Liberty, for me, is all about the greater vision. If it is helping bring Doc's vision to fruition, then I am for it. Top 25 wins, in my view, are better publicity for the school than the particular coach. Being the host site for Game day would be better publicity than playing against (ND)... (although it might be the same day! :D) And "selling out games" means that the team is doing well and the community is supporting the team.
