i know people who went to liberty. apparently much of the athlete population is not representative of the student population in general. sounds like there's a lot of these guys accepted into liberty for athletics alone, despite academic and character flaws.
on a similar note, rumor has it that someone once filled out a liberty admissions application for their pet dog. and they were accepted. lol.]8/30/2011 11:24:08 PM |

They've got the official thing under a password at their website, apparently, but here's a copy of at least some of The Liberty Way, their code of conduct.
http://saveandrewgarib.com/?page=templates/article&articleid=333
Quote : | "Liberty University has always attempted to maintain a conservative standard in its approach to the arts and entertainment. Current policy for movie viewing allows for attendance at theaters but prohibits viewing of movies rated “R”, “NC-17” or “X”. The penalty for viewing such movies is a reprimandable offense. It should be remembered that in no way is Liberty University endorsing the movie industry’s rating system as appropriate or Christ-honoring. In addition, the Division of Student Affairs will continue teaching guidelines and principles to students related to all forms of entertainment. This would mean that many “PG-13” and some “PG” movies, although not prohibited by policy, may also be inappropriate." |
Quote : | "Commuter students must be off campus by midnight. Those students who need to be on campus after curfew for the purpose of work, computer lab use, or special events must obtain permission at the main entrance (checkpoint area). Single students are not allowed to visit in apartments of the opposite sex or to entertain visitors of the opposite sex in their own apartment unless there are three (3) or more persons present. Under no circumstances, should any person enter the bedroom of the opposite sex. A visitation curfew of 12 midnight will be in effect. Resident students are not permitted to stay overnight in the apartment or house of an off-campus single person." |
Quote : | "The playing of video games that are “A” and “RP” -rated is not permitted, and is a reprimandable offense. The playing of “EC”, “E”, and “T”-rated games are permitted but should be played with discretion. Any “M” -rated games with descriptors indicating any sexual content, alcohol/drug content, or strong language are not permitted, and is a reprimandable offense. “M” -rated games depicting violence will be at the discretion of Resident Directors. Liberty University refers to the Bible for all moral standards." |
Then again, they do choose to go here, knowing that it's like this *shrug*8/31/2011 9:44:29 AM |

I had a friend who went to GCC (Grove City College), which is very similar in standards to Liberty. A dry campus, proxies on their internet (no pr0n), etc. But everyone knew how to bypass the proxy and many students had liquor in their rooms.
That's how college works. It teaches you to bend/break the rules. 8/31/2011 10:12:07 AM |

But how many were snorting coke (just seems extreme for a evangelical baptsit school)? But I realize that guy ain't representative of the students, or even the other athletes. I still can't get over the fact that he is 380 and messing with the booger sugar. Or maybe he was just dealing.
btw, I'm getting real excited about this game!!!!!!!!

Quote : | "Liberty coach familiar with NCSU's O'Brien, challenge still great by Aaron Schoonmaker
Raleigh, N.C. — North Carolina State University has never played Liberty in football. Head coach Tom O’Brien has never led a team against the Flames. But Liberty head coach Danny Rocco believes he has a beat on the Wolfpack and their head man - even though the challenge will be great.
Rocco is a Wake Forest graduate. He was an associate head coach at Virginia from 2001-2005 and an assistant 1991-93 at Maryland when O’Brien was at Boston College. Rocco spent six years as an assistant at Wake Forest and Boston College during the years that O’Brien was an assistant at Virginia. He is well versed in the ACC and in O’Brien's style.
“Always very disciplined, always very physical, always play hard and smart,” Rocco said of O’Brien’s teams during an interview with Mark and Mike, The Insiders, on 620 The Buzz Tuesday morning. “Those are four things right there that are going to give you a chance to win.”
Rocco is no slouch of a coach himself. He has amassed a 40-16 record in five seasons at Liberty after taking over a team that went 1-0 the year before his arrival. He has won four consecutive conference titles in that stretch and now he thinks he has his best team yet.
“When we got here, this thing didn’t have a whole lot of energy or enthusiasm or momentum,” Rocco said. “We have pretty consistently built this thing up to the point that we have our best football team.”
Even with Rocco’s success at Liberty, he said he didn’t need to look at tape long to see an impressive NC State team this year.
“There seems to be a little more team speed; that jumps out at me,” Rocco said. “That gets my attention in terms of the speed they have at the skill positions; the speed that they have on defense.”
O’Brien has not lost to an FCS team, but it’s hard to find a match-up of head men with such knowledge of each other in a cross-division matchup.
Liberty Leaders
For Rocco and the Flames, there are two key guys that O’Brien’s Wolfpack need to be wary of on Saturday evening.
Senior quarterback Mike Brown took over as the full-time signal caller last year, but in his time with the Flames has returned kicks and punts and continues to line up at wide receiver. Brown is a three-time captain, two-time Big-South preseason offensive player of the year, Big-South All-Conference and preseason Walter Payton award candidate.
The bigger concern for NC State, in stature and game effect, will be 6-foot-5, 280-pound Asa Chapman. The middle man in the heart of a 3-4 line is expected to be a game changer.
“He is a Taylor-made nose tackle,” Rocco said. “When you have that type of size and athleticism, you have the ability to sit in the middle and anchor this defense.”" |

Looks basically like espn3 but you have to purchase the college sports package which isn't too cheap, but I think it's still worth it. $30/month or $150/year. 9/1/2011 2:27:30 PM |

TOB:
Quote : | ""[The returners] are as good as they've ever been. You've got the 2,4,6,80 combination back there. That's what it looks like as they stand back there, the four of them. " |
The 2,4,6,80 combination he's referring to are the jersey number's: 2: Smith 4: Palmer 6: Graham 80: Underwood
I'm interpreting that as a depth chart as well. Which makes sense because you don't want your 1st string WR (Graham) back there risking injury every time. And Palmer has been talked about as a good returner before he even got here.
Hopefully Smith will get his chance to take one to the house on Saturday. 9/1/2011 3:21:18 PM |

Quote : | "The Law of the Jungle Rudyard Kipling
Now this is the Law of the Jungle -- as old and as true as the sky; And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk the Law runneth forward and back -- For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
Wash daily from nose-tip to tail-tip; drink deeply, but never too deep; And remember the night is for hunting, and forget not the day is for sleep. The Jackal may follow the Tiger, but, Cub, when thy whiskers are grown, Remember the Wolf is a Hunter -- go forth and get food of thine own. Keep peace withe Lords of the Jungle -- the Tiger, the Panther, and Bear. And trouble not Hathi the Silent, and mock not the Boar in his lair. When Pack meets with Pack in the Jungle, and neither will go from the trail, Lie down till the leaders have spoken -- it may be fair words shall prevail. When ye fight with a Wolf of the Pack, ye must fight him alone and afar, Lest others take part in the quarrel, and the Pack be diminished by war. The Lair of the Wolf is his refuge, and where he has made him his home, Not even the Head Wolf may enter, not even the Council may come. The Lair of the Wolf is his refuge, but where he has digged it too plain, The Council shall send him a message, and so he shall change it again. If ye kill before midnight, be silent, and wake not the woods with your bay, Lest ye frighten the deer from the crop, and your brothers go empty away. Ye may kill for yourselves, and your mates, and your cubs as they need, and ye can; But kill not for pleasure of killing, and seven times never kill Man! If ye plunder his Kill from a weaker, devour not all in thy pride; Pack-Right is the right of the meanest; so leave him the head and the hide. The Kill of the Pack is the meat of the Pack. Ye must eat where it lies; And no one may carry away of that meat to his lair, or he dies. The Kill of the Wolf is the meat of the Wolf. He may do what he will; But, till he has given permission, the Pack may not eat of that Kill. Cub-Right is the right of the Yearling. From all of his Pack he may claim Full-gorge when the killer has eaten; and none may refuse him the same. Lair-Right is the right of the Mother. From all of her year she may claim One haunch of each kill for her litter, and none may deny her the same. Cave-Right is the right of the Father -- to hunt by himself for his own: He is freed of all calls to the Pack; he is judged by the Council alone. Because of his age and his cunning, because of his gripe and his paw, In all that the Law leaveth open, the word of your Head Wolf is Law. Now these are the Laws of the Jungle, and many and mighty are they; But the head and the hoof of the Law and the haunch and the hump is -- Obey!" |
