In a surprise announcement on Friday, Liberty senior guard Darius McGhee announced he will be returning to Liberty for a fifth season, forgoing a professional playing career for the time being.
“When they say ‘Good things come in small packages’ they mean it. Darius McGhee’s decision to return for an additional season is such a blessing to our program,” Flames coach Ritchie McKay said. “In many ways, it is a testament to the kind of young man he is, humble, pursuant, hard-working and a fantastic teammate. But it also speaks to the incredible young men that we have in our program that he would forego opportunities that are very appealing in order to pursue a year of shared experiences with the family he resides in our campus.”
