Agree. I read the book and it seems to portray a valid outlook on Liberty. Some negative points, some positive points. I was expecting it to be a hatchet job as he was there "undercover" to write a book, but it wasn't.

I think they sold the book at the Liberty bookstore for awhile too.

As this post title is about Liberty and FCOA, can we keep the dialogue about that here. If you choose to make more points about the concept of what the federal government should do regarding financial assistance, then a new thread about that would allow those interested to discuss that point.

The merit and credibility of Liberty has been discussed countless times here and if we go there with this thread we're down another rabbit hole.

There wasn't much to discuss about Liberty and FCoA. They're offering it. Good for them. Done.

The thread has moved on to more important issues, like how Liberty gets their money to pay for FCoA.

For other schools? I think the ones who have the fan support and playoff success can be able to do this.
