In what way do his comments keep the "people" from having their "moment"?

Beej, RELAX!

Bluejacket was being realistic, not negative. I happen to agree with him!

If our not getting in had little to do with events on the field, why would that change significantly now?

The big impact that our playoff appearance has on realignment is that it brings more national recognition to our program and when a conference is looking for a program, name recognition is important.

So while technically it's not the "winning" per se but the exposure the winning gets us that will be a win for us realignment wise.

We'll have plenty of time to discuss this once the season is over, but the most logical thing is recruiting. The #1 recruit in Houston, who's visited Liberty, gave LU a shout out for beating Coastal and getting in the playoffs.

Maybe we'll also see some opinions change from some of those who don't think we're worthy of FBS. I know it's only making the playoffs once, and we still haven't won a game there, but every step helps.
Not doing anything at this level has always been my knock on moving up. This does not completely do away with that because it could just be a 1 year thing. But it does take down some of the arguments walls.
Plus, there are the other sports to look at. Specifically MBB WBB etc

WBB beat Big10 penn State over the weekend

Volleyball will be back barring injuries (again) and women's basketball will be solid for years to come. I think you're mostly focusing on our lack of a successful men's basketball program.
