On this episode of the ASOR Podcast, Jon and Chad break down all the happenings in Liberty Athletics with a special focus on men’s basketball. Special guests include head coach Ritchie McKay and Athletic Director Ian McCaw.
The episode begins with Jon and Chad discussing the world of college football coaching changes, and how the Flames have been able to hang onto Coach Freeze through four SEC coaching changes this offseason. We also talk about men’s basketball heading into the stretch run and is this Liberty team capable of making a run in March? Conference realignment is also a popular topic right now, we touch on that as well.
Ritchie McKay joins the show for the first time this season to discuss his team. Chad took questions from the Liberty fan community to ask Coach McKay. Some of the topics include three-point shooting and the Packline, McKay’s bout with COVID and how he interacted with the team during his time away, Liberty’s time in the Big South and what Coach misses about it, Carlik Jones, the extra year of eligibility for the seniors, and Liberty Arena.
Ian McCaw is welcomed back on the podcast this week. Chad and Ian discuss several topics relating to Liberty Athletics including NIL, revenue generation for the athletic program, engaging the local community, the decision behind the ASUN moving the conference tournament to Jacksonville, coaching searches around the country, and the Liberty Twitter Bracket Challenge.
