Two impressive paragraphs from the same article:
“Liberty offered me a full scholarship and I took it,” Bevins said. “I took my official visit there last weekend and everything was top-notch. The facilities were great and I got along really well with the coaching staff. I just felt very comfortable during the visit and knew it was the right place for me.”

“One thing that played a big role was that it is a Christian school and faith is a very important part of my life,” Bevins added. “I know I will receive a great education at Liberty and get to play."

Also of note...
Bevins wrote:"They actually won their conference this year as well, so that is a big plus.”
Who ever said a Big South Conference championship wasn't impressive? It obviously helped this time around.

Great news. I wondered why Rocco didn't recruit a kicker last year, but he knew we didn't need one as we got Noah. I think a kicker deserves a full scholarship at this level. They can make the difference in games many times. If we could sign one every 4-5 years, and always have one that would be great.

have to say I agree completely with you on this one.

Anyone that watched the losses in 2005 knows that all too well :banghead

This is good news! I spoke to my bro last night and he was telling me that a couple of the recruits who were on their visits this weekend were impressed, and a few of them intended to commit during their meetings with Coach Rocco on Sunday morning. Though I know verbals mean nothing, I'm looking forward to seeing who else intends to join the LU family :)

Yes, kickers/punters do deserve full scholarships! :D
