So you have these progressive intellects sitting around a table and I'm sure the thought of inviting someone to their table that thinks and believes very different than they do is a hard pill to swallow. That's all speculation, what's not speculation is private vs. public. That's a major sticking point.

I'm not sure that 11 presidents at 11 state supported institutions in the south is exactly the League of Liberals.

There is a vast difference in mission of the institutions.

Liberty's admission page says to be considered for an academic scholarship a student must have a high school GPA of 2.7 and an ACT of 20. AState won't admit you without a 2.75 high school GPA and an ACT of 21, you can get conditional admission at lower levels but you are in a crack if you do because depending on your test scores you will have to complete three to 12 non-credit hours successfully to fully admitted and those don't count toward your degree progress for financial aid.

For clarification that scholarship is not an academic scholarship, it's there to help offset the overall cost of tuition and almost every kid gets some help.
