Per NCAA rules, June 15 is the first day the 2023 class can speak directly with Division I college coaches. Before this date, college coaches needed to call parents or high school coaches in order to reach student-athletes. With 2022 prospects Javan Simmons, Josh Reed, and Zach Cleveland all taking official visits to Liberty this month, the Flames are still heavily pursuing rising seniors, but it’s never too early to look ahead to the 2023 class.
