Is it strange to anyone else that Liberty is currently one of the most successful mid-major athletics departments in Division I revenue sports?
Apart from all the other stuff happening at the Lynchburg, Va., private school — which of course, is all a bit off-topic and off-putting — it just feels strange to think of Liberty as a threat. But a threat they are at the moment. The 9-1 football Flames are currently ranked No. 22 in the Associated Press poll, and are about to get their coach Hugh Freeze (yeah, that guy) a promotion to a bigger school.
