2. Liberty (56) – They just moved into the Atlantic Sun from the Big South, where they spent nearly three decades as a member. The Flames have gone to the NCAA tourney three times – in 1994, 2004 and 2013. Ritchie McKay is in his second stint as head coach, and has taken the team to the CIT each of the past two seasons.

Where they win: “Support, support, resources, resources. They have the best resources in the league, and great facilities. They only thing that Florida Gulf Coast has that they don’t is the beach.” – A-Sun assistant coach

The knock: “It’s known as an ultra-religious Christian school founded by Jerry Falwell, so that eliminates a good amount of kids. You have to be the right fit for Liberty.” – Big South assistant

I can agree with all of that.

I will say, there will always be a small surprise in my head every year that Liberty is both massive and Christian. But it seems that our assessment as a forum of the program seems to be in line with how we are viewed externally. It also highlights why we wanted into the ASun. Our recruiting base is trees and mountains. The ASUN will be a great symbiotic relationship.
