As the Sun Belt Conference’s spring meetings wrap up today, could they announce the addition of Liberty as the 12th football-playing member in the league?
According to one report, if it happens for the 2014 season expect an announcement today. Sun Belt commissioner Karl Benson said prior to the meetings beginning on Sunday, that he expects “any announcement involving Sun Belt membership would happen Wednesday when the meetings wrap up.”
The Sun Belt needs to fill a vacancy left by Western Kentucky who is going to the Conference USA to fulfill its plans for two six-team divisions and a league championship game for 2014.
The Sun Belt & Commissioner Benson are scheduled for a 12:30 media teleconference today, but don’t get your hopes up.
