    Could Liberty be FBS in "months"?

    That is the hint that Liberty President Jerry Falwell Jr. gave yesterday at a meeting with city leaders.

    It's been very quiet on this topic for quite some time, but could this mean talks are ongoing behind the scenes? Who knows.

    I had a wierd theory when him and Mr. Trump began their partnership. I wondered if he was going to use some of Trump's influence/ connections in order to advance the university. It's possible.

    Trump's connections in higher education?

    I would like to see what Liberty could do if they went FBS. Not just the teams but the school in general. I hope it happens.

    Yah, coaches, donors, NCAA officials, whoever. Being the Republican nominee/ his name im sure has a lot of influence.

    Actually, my post was a backhanded slap at Trump U but I am sure he has connections but I doubt he gives two ****s about Liberty joining the Sun Belt. It would be small potatoes.

    If he loses the election and returns to his business life, he will probably buy the Sun Belt and rename it the Trump Conference. And put it's games on Tuesday nights with the slogan "Tuesday is now Trumpday". He will re-establish Trump University and pay all his players a FCOA of $100,000 per year, sue the SEC for antitrust issues and then sell New Trump U right before it goes under. This is the man after all, who wouldn't release Dough Flutie from his contract when the USFL folded, and made him sit out for two years before going to the NFL.

    I agree that he couldn't care less about Liberty and FBS. Now the right-sized check to his opponent's foundation and liberty will be in the B1G.
