Time now for Today's Liberty Flames Minute! Brought to you by Select Bank for this Monday, December 30, 2024, I'm Nick Pierce.
One of the biggest storylines of college football's postseason has been the transfer portal. Many teams have struggled to fill rosters to even play their bowl games.
As Liberty prepares to meet Buffalo in the Bahamas Bowl, the Flames are also dealing with some recent departures. Head Coach Jamey Chadwell was asked about the challenge of navigating the portal window while staying on an academic calendar.
"They've got to figure out somehow not to have the free agency when it is, before the bowl game. I don't know the necessary answers. If I had my best guess, you've got to move the season up. You've got to start the season earlier in August and have your season finished by thanksgiving. Then, that way you can have your national signing date and you can have your bowl games a little bit earlier and then have your free agency here at the end of December/January when it's not affecting the majority of your bowl games."
Liberty and Buffalo kick off the Bahamas Bowl this Saturday at 11 a.m. Eastern.
