Val Erickson brings veteran size, tackle/guard versatility, and portal-tested depth to Liberty's O-line
In the 2026 season, Val Erickson is a 6-foot-5, 320-pound redshirt senior who gives Liberty real grown-man heft and flexibility after arriving from NC State and beginning his career at Missouri. He has played in 14 games over the 2024-25 seasons, started two at right tackle, and has shown enough adaptability to factor at both guard and tackle, which is gold for an offensive line room. The fit? Very solid if you want experienced depth with upside, not flashy headlines—more trench reliability than viral mixtape.
