College Football Star Under Fire For Insensitive Response to Week 5 Game Liberty quarterback Kaidon Salter is taking heat on social media for his comment regarding App State amid Hurricane Helene.

SEPTEMBER 28 • SACBEE.COM

Week 5 matchup cancelled Salter and the Flames' contest against Appalachian State on Saturday has been called off due to the effects of Hurricane Helene.

Impact Salter and the rest of Liberty's program will get an extended bye week after their matchup with App State was called off due to weather conditions surrounding Hurricane Helene. The 6-foot-1 junior, who has thrown for 949 yards (66-of-103), seven touchdowns and one interception across four outings this season, adding on 131 yards on the ground, will lead the Flames into battle against FIU on Oct. 8, giving the team effectively three weeks off from football. Liberty's matchup against Appalachian State will not be rescheduled.

Breaks through...sorta Salter went 19-for-32 for 223 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception against ECU on Saturday. He also ran for 36 yards on 12 attempts but fumbled twice, losing one.

Impact You see a quarterback throw four touchdowns and it is hard to be disappointed, but the concerns about Salter after last years remarkable campaign remain. He hasn't topped 256 passing yards in a game, and on the ground he's been a zero after rushing for 1,089 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2023. Salter has not hit 50 rushing yards yet in a game, he has zero rushing scores, and he's already lost three fumbles.

Can't keep pace with 2023 numbers Salter went 15-for-19 for 228 yards and a touchdown against UTEP on Saturday. He ran nine times for 24 yards, but fumbled twice, losing one of them.

Impact Well...it's been three games now. The opponents have all been easy. Salter was a star last season, a top fantasy performer. This year, he has as many turnovers as touchdowns. The utter lack of rushing is really concerning. Last season Salter ran for over 1,000 yards with 12 touchdowns. This year he has 95 yards on 28 attempts without a single score.

SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Throws two TDs Salter went 16-for-23 for 242 yards and two touchdowns against Campbell on Saturday. He also ran nine times for 48 yards but lost a fumble.

Impact It took the Liberty offense a bit to get going, but this game featured a weather delay and was not played in the best of conditions. Salter did enough to lead the Flames to a win while putting up respectable numbers. He threw for 32 touchdowns while running for 12 last season as one of the best fantasy quarterbacks in college football. There's no reason to worry.

Impact Head coach Jamey Caldwell loves a quarterback who can run, and Salter now has gone over 500 yards on the ground. His passing yards aren't eye popping, he's been held under 200 yards four times, but his 16 passing scores against three picks stand out for the undefeated Flames.
