As we continue our Summer countdown of the top 10 storylines entering the 2013 football season, today we reach #6 Danny Rocco’s Revenge. The Richmond Spiders head coach will square off with his former team on September 21, less than 2 years removed from being head coach at Liberty.
In fact, some Liberty players who played under Rocco have already expressed how much the Richmond game will mean to them:
Our game against Richmond will be the most memorable game I played here at Liberty. It will be many mixed emotions for that game! #CantWait”
