Charlie Skalaski, who was Liberty University’s football recruiting coordinator and wide receivers coach, has left the Flames coaching staff to join new Jacksonville Jaguars coach Mike Mularkey’s staff.
Skalaski was one of two assistant coaches that new LU coach Turner Gill retained off the previous staff. Marshall Roberts was the other. Skalaski has been at Liberty since 2003, when he worked under Ken Karcher as tight ends coach.
"Charlie Skalaski did an outstanding job of representing Liberty University and its mission while being part of the football program," Gill said. "He will be missed and we hope nothing but the best for he and his family in all their new endeavors."
Asheville agreement reached Should UNC Asheville, which is currently in first place in the Big South in men’s basketball, earn the right to host the conference tournament championship game, it will be able to do so. The Big South and the Southern Conference reached an agreement Monday to make Asheville’s Kimmel Arena available for the game. The school had already committed its new arena to the Southern Conference women’s tournament quarterfinals on March 3, the day of the Big South men’s title game. UNC Asheville had petitioned to be able to play the game its old home, the Justice Center. Instead, if Asheville is in the title game, the SoCon will move its first women’s quarterfinal to the Justice Center, and the Asheville men will play at Kimmel Arena at noon.
