Local news outlets report Liberty University officials say it will pay Old Dominion University $1.32 million to play in its 2018 home opener.
Liberty athletic director Ian McCaw says the school could afford the payment only because the Flames signed a guarantee game in 2018 with a Power Five school “that is upwards of seven figures.” He says the guarantee will essentially be forwarded to Old Dominion but would not identify the school it came from.
