On Tuesday night, I joined the Fast Lane with Ed Lane to discuss Liberty football’s offseason and Flames’ basketball moving forward as the team has opened CUSA play at 7-0.
Our conversation centered around:
- Where we stand on Liberty Flames Athletics wishing former WR CJ Daniels good luck as he played for the Miami Hurricanes in the CFP Championship?
- What’s the sentiment of Liberty Flames alumni, students, and supporters on supporting former Flames who’ve transferred?
- How wild is it that few people are shocked the Liberty Flames are ranked in preseason softball Top 25 polls?
- How does the addition of QB Jaylen Henderson impact the 2026 QB outlook?
- Did Ritchie McKay reach a different level of frustration at halftime of Saturday’s win over UTEP?
- How does the FBI indictment of CBB players (including Kennesaw State’s Simeon Cottle) impact the Flames’ CUSA men’s basketball challengers?
- How cool was it to see Liberty honor Colin Porter, Kaden Metheny, & Zach Cleveland for each scoring 1,000 points in a Flames uniform?
