Turner Gill really fell off the map. Remember when he was the next big thing?
Ron Brown will easily be replaced.
Penguin Nation:
Liberty is the only FCS school thus far to offer FCOA scholarships, and likely will be moving soon to the FBS. This seems like a really good fit for Coach Brown.
Our loss.
IAA Fan:
I think that you are probably correct Nation. I simply do not know coach Brown.
Liberty will likely move up ...very nice college. Sam Ruttigliano went there (after they gave Tressel and not Sam the YSU job) & he was very successful. He then left the HC spot and became assistant Chancellor of Liberty. That is a very powerful position.
Wick250:
Given his religious proclivities, this is a good move for Brown and for us. We don't really need any non-football related controversy. Liberty undoubtedly is building to "move up," but they will be disappointed. The new NCAA policy mandates that a FCS team can advance to FBS status only if they are admitted into an established FBS conference. I don't see public universities, even in the South, welcoming an intense and extreme religious institution that has nearly unlimited money to spend on sports.

Those are just some of the Catholic Schools alone, those with asterisks have national championships to their credit (in either football and/or basketball) ...plenty of National championships here. There are many more Christian schools. The largest of which is probably Brigham Young and TCU. So Liberty is not even close to extreme & could do very well for themselves.
