Bounds commits after visit
Liberty picked up their 5th commitment in the Class of 2016 when Damian Bounds, Jr committed Wednesday night. Bounds, from Stockbridge, Georgia, is projected to begin his career on the offensive line at Liberty. He is the 2nd offensive lineman to commit joining Ethan Crawford. The rest of the 2016 class currently consists of QB Rudiger Yearick and safeties Brandon Tillmon and Jalen Camp.

Big South Basketball Season Preview
If you’re dying for some basketball information, Staring at the Floorboards posted a pretty in-depth Big South conference preview for the 2015-16 season. Obviously, it’s very early to be writing a preview, but there’s a lot of good detail here.
