On Thursday night, I joined the Fast Lane with Ed Lane to discuss Liberty’s season opener at James Madison while also looking ahead to Gardner-Webb on Saturday. We also talk about Malik Willis preparing to make history for Liberty football when he starts this weekend for Miami.
Our conversation centered around:
- If Deshawn Purdie’s swag is something the Liberty Flames need right now?
- How much are the Flames penalties at JMU early season/new roster related? How much are a trend of Jamey Chadwell coached teams?
- What’s more important for the Flames to show against Gardner-Webb: reduced self-inflicted mistakes or an improved run game?
- True or False: how the Liberty Flames look against Gardner-Webb is more important than if the Flames cover as a 26.5 point favorite?
- How much the elimination of penalties and improved run game go hand in hand.
- How confident the Flames fans should feel in the defense given the second half adjustments at JMU.
- The excitement to see Malik Willis to get his opportunity as an NFL starting QB for the Miami Dolphins.
