Walden:
Crazy year, Tough on team and players, they worked hard and wanted to play.
Been a really solid week of practice. Some of the best this season.
Safety comes first, which is why game is cancelled.
Not everyone who was out was due to having Covid. Some was contact tracing some were positive test.
20 Players were affected by this
Were down to 44 or 45 scholly players
The team was just down to to few players and it was not safe to play at that point.
We are doing everything in our power to play this week.
85-90% of team doing the right thing, but it just takes a few who are not to affect them all.
We believe in our protocols and adapting to new situations.
He does expect to get several guys back this week.
We will test every day this week.
He is really happy that the games can be rescheduled that the conference have moved back the season.
Coach Freeze and staff has done a really good job. They play hard and physical. They make you prepare for different looks on defense. They run the ball extremely well, running scheme is excellent. They create a tough and challenging matchups on offense.
Tim Jones is day to day.
Kubik:
We had a great week of practice. Didn't find out till after practice Friday.
Eagles might get a couple of guys back from injury.
Liberty defense is a lot like South Alabama from a scheme standpoint. They have really good DE, LB are fast and physical. They are well coaches and do a good job of being in position to make plays.
With Liberty playing 5 games the coaches finally have an opportunity to watch more than one or 2 films.
Their DE might be slightly undersized, but are extremely fast. Eagles must stay ahead of the chains.
LPS had a great week of practice. Trace is back with us, but not sure when he will be able to get back in there.
The RB group should be back to about full if not full this week.
Pecoraro:
He feels the defense is improving. Team was disappointing they could not play.
Liberty is an extremely talented offense. Do a good job in the run and pass game. Their O-Line does a good job.
Their talent will make stopping them a challenge.
The QB is a true duel threat who is as tough to stop as any of their RB.
The time off has helped some guys getting back off injury. These two weeks have been nice with lack of Spring ball.
Arvin Fletcher:
Team has handles the last 2 weeks pretty well.
It was nice to get some guys back.
Enjoyed being miked up for 11 brothers, it showed how much fun we can have.
Liberty has a good DL, they are fast and are well coached and run fast.
The team has learned that when things don't go your way, just calm down and it stuff will work itself out.
Hemby:
Been tough not to play, everyone is eager to play right now.
Team moral is high. They have been attacking practice like crazy. Stay positive, they have been getting stronger together. Walden's energy has been lifting us up.
Liberty QB is a great athlete, he can throw, run, and throw on the run.
Got to stay at home this week and play their position and keys on defense.
it is such an odd year, this team has become your family. That has gotten the defense better by trusting in each other. Everyone has been giving it 100% at practice.
