Liberty’s linebackers coach Carl Torbush recently announced his retirement leaving a hole in the Flames coaching staff. We recently spoke with @FootballScoop to determine possibilities for fulling this job.

@flames_nation It will be a promotion from within the staff. No external hire.

@flames_nation Sounds like they are moving to an FBS model (HC +9 assts, grad assts & QC)

Nothing groundbreaking here, but some information. Head Coach Turner Gill recently reassigned coaching responsibilities so Robert Wimberly and Josh Bookbinder will share linebacker coaching responsibilities. This leaves one opening at Special Teams Coordinator.
