NMSU coaches carousel favors Liberty
More grumblings on the SBC boards with the announcement of the DC and OC leaving the NMSU program. Liberty continues to be in the discussion as a full member with some previous anti LU posters changing their tune. The tone of the posts run from take LU because of their strength and assets to the continual LU doesn't fit, Prez will never give them votes, yada, yada, yada.

New Mexico State was 2-10 this year with wins against FCS Cal-Poly and GaState with an average of 12,400 per game in a 31,000 seat stadium. Idaho at 1-11, had their only win against NMSU. Idaho averages 12,900 a game. Even though GaState at 1-11 had a down year, they will succeed and improve in the future and have a great upside unlike NMSU or Idaho. LU, with an improving home schedule, even in the lame/weak/bottom run BSC minus Coastal, is likely to break attendance records exceeding 19,000 or near capacity. This is playing mostly poor Big South Conference teams.

What these SBC posters don't get is the lightning rod that Liberty is. Just ask JMU or Richmond how pumped they were NOT to lose to LU in 2014 or ODU the year before. With Liberty's position/brand comes recognition and notoriety, some favorable, some unfavorable. If the majority of LU nay sayers on the SBC boards are correct, which I don't believe the are, LU will never be a SBC or FBS member.

If the passion from the nay sayers on this board, is equal at the game once we finally play, LU is going to a fantastic fit in the SBC. LU will travel well, play a better brand of FB than the lower/down SBC teams, and be the one team your team hates to lose to. And we put fannies in the seats, both at home and on the road.

FBS affiliation for LU is coming and it's getting closer all the time.

If the rumor of the Sun Belt not renewing the football-only members helps LU. That way if they want to go to 12, then LU, EKU, and MSU would come as a package. Regardless, it helps LU get a full membership.

Why would we be in a package deal with unrelated schools? And a package deal with schools that aren't ready or willing to move up?

I guess package was the wrong word but just that we'd all be invited join the Sun Belt at the same time, not necessarily together.

Those seem to be the schools that want to join the Sun Belt but aren't ready at the current time unlike JMU who emphatically said no.

I'm not sure that JMU emphatically said no. If C-USA loses/gains members, and JMU is not part of that, they likely would love a second invite to the SBC. The strength of how LU has slowly but built up it's program and facilities has merit to it's credibility. Comparing LU currently to several SBC schools now shows we have facilities comparable, attendance that if it was only a 3k to 4k increase would push us over 20,000 average per game. Many positives to be excited with the upcoming changing landscape. The poor showing of NMSU and Idaho only adds to tops FCS programs appeal.

Mix in the U-AB dropping football, there's falling outs and falling in that are coming soon. LU keeps getting more appealing.

I think Liberty gets more attractive over time but time is running out. I would expect the Sun Belt to want to get a FCS school to move up ASAP so they can hurry up and get over any growing pains and acclimate them to the FBS world. That means an invitation sooner rather than later. Liberty is clearly still waiting for an invitation so the SB is still not sold on them and feels no rush to add LU. I don't think they want the embarrassment of coming back to JMU and asking them to join again after JMU publicly said no and dissed the conference. And I only think JMU would consider it if there were no other options.

Hmmmm, I'm not so sure about that. If the SBC really wanted that they would have invited someone last time around. LU might be getting closer but we can't even get voted on to get turned down so for all the presidents to vote us in is a huge leap. Is it possible? Sure it is but it's more of a long shot. I'm hoping LU does get a invite I'm just not holding my breath either. LU posters keep focusing on attendance and facilities, for a school like LU we need more. A winning tradition and better academics would be extremely helpful to our cause. If throwing money at this could get us invited we would of already had one.

Out of Liberty's control: Conference invitations, Conference votes

Within Liberty's control: Building up LU athletic and academic infrastructure, building up LU athletic and academic profile and brand, building up athletic and academic competitiveness.

We can only control what is within our power to control. As long as we continue to build rather than stagnate, athletically and academically, we will be more and more attractive and ready for an FBS move.

GaSt has an uphill battle. LU has an uphill battle. Different battles but GaSt has a challenge carving it's niche in the Atlanta market with strong pro and college sports. LU struggles to rid itself of past blunders and statements to make itself credible. Both are heading in the right direction and both need to do the same thing. Win. When GaSt wins, they'll grab some headlines and build an attendance base. When LU wins, they'll gain some credibility and be perceived to be more FBS ready. I'm actually getting excited for the LU vs. GaSt game this year. GaSt will be highly motivated not to lose to a FCS school, much less LU, and LU will be highly motivated to notch another FBS win, especially against a SBC team. I expect it to be a high anticipated game for LU, and hopefully for GaSt.

The Sun Belt tried to do that last time around, and failed. JMU said no, MSU said not right now.

I wonder what the presidents hangups are on Liberty. If they are lack of football success then this year would have chipped away at much of that. If it is academic prestige, then there isn't much Liberty can do aside from not teaching Creationism. If it is the quality/quantity of Liberty's online program, then Liberty could make it tougher to get into and tougher to graduate from. Liberty can't do much if the problem is that they are a private school.

Like I said, Liberty is probably a last resort until LU does something to make the Sun Belt (or other conference) want to invite them. Get better at basketball and keep improving football and they are 95% there. The last 5% would be improving academics and LU can only do that so much with their mission and ideals.

What? What does Liberty's mission and ideals have to do with not improving academics? If anything our mission and ideals spur us toward excellence in all aspects of life. I am not sure I follow your train of thought.

Liberty teaches Creationism which is greatly frowned in the academic world. As long as Liberty continues to do that then they won't earn any respect in the academic circles.

I agree. I think Liberty is doing the wise thing and expanding into almost any field of study imaginable. I would keep expanding the degree offerings, hire reputable professors, and keep the same mission without compromise.

Army mike, you seem so sensible. How in the world are you a Louisville fan?

03-lmfao I see what you're doing there. I was born and raised in Louisville, had extended family members attend UofL, have been a season ticket holder in both football and basketball at times over the years. I consider myself a diehard Card fan, but times are changing a bit. Liberty is slowly moving into that #1 position for me. Though I like UofL athletics, that's about it. I love what LU stands for, their mission, and the way they go about teaching. I love the campus atmosphere in Lynchburg, and it's only getting better. The most fun and best experience I've ever had at a college football game was at The Bill watching Liberty games... and I've been to a pretty good handful of other football stadiums.

RE: NMSU coaches carousel favors Liberty
I'm actually a UK fan having lived in Lexington for 11 years before moving to Cincinnati. I actually have a masters degree from UofL, but have never been able to root for them. I feel the same about Liberty. I've had season tickets for UK games for years until last year when I decided to take that money and drive to homecoming and to the app state game.
