I was just poking around in the available yum plugins and I
didn't see one for blacklisting mirrors. Is there something
that will allow me to do that, and I just didn't recognize
it from the description?

I'm basically ready to give up on mirrors.liberty.edu since
yum keeps trying to use it, timing out, and picking a different
mirror. I'd like to tell it to stop wasting time ever
trying that particular mirror (don't know if it is a problem
with that mirror or just the path from here to there).

Easiest just to block that IP address in the OUTPUT chain in
your firewall.  Use REJECT, not DROP, so that yum will get an
instant failure when it tries to connect.  That will also keep
yum-fastestmirror from ever selecting that site.
