After going undefeated during the regular season and winning the Conference USA Championship, Liberty was the Group of Five team chosen to compete in a New Year’s Six bowl this past season.
Though the Flames lost in the Fiesta Bowl, they’re aiming to sustain that level of success against CUSA opponents. And their odds of doing that improved when Kaidon Salter, the G5 Player of the Year, decided to stay at Liberty after entering the transfer portal.
The Flames did also lose some players this offseason, though. Here’s a glance at those who have joined Liberty and who have left the program this offseason through the transfer portal, per 247 Sports. This list consists only of players who have made their new teams known and doesn’t include players still in the transfer portal.
