Saturday--April 29th, 2017

This article from News Advance.com reports Coach Whipple and AD Ryan Bamford have discussed adding Liberty to future UMass schedules. The article states Whipple and Bamford will meet this weekend to discuss future scheduling.

Liberty is in Lynchburg, Va if you've forgotten. BTW, the Flames are in the process of a $1 billion dollar  facilities construction that includes a indoor football practice facility.

The Flames are serious about their football.

UMass, Liberty, Army and New Mexico State could form a unofficial mini-conference. It would sure make scheduling easier.
