We're hiring a Diving Coach! And yes, diving matters here. Now yes, many Head Coaches will tell you that diving matters. I show you. When we built our new facility, I didn't ask for a separate well, I demanded one. In fact, I told our folks I didn't want a new pool unless it had a separate well, and I was willing to wait as long as needed to see it happen. I was willing to put an entire facility on the line for a separate well, and I stood by those words. That said, I didn't have to. There was no pushback. Liberty was on board. Let's do it, said the decision makers here at LU. Big-time. Willing to invest. Of course we'll do a separate well, they said. And the rest is history. This is a special place, one where Olympic sports matter, and within our program, diving matters. Many will say...do they back up those words with bold action? Go Flames!🔥🔥🔥

With June 15th around the corner, there will be those that still wonder… “Why would top recruits ever consider Liberty?” 👀👀🔥🔥

Perception is reality, of course. Few see Liberty as a Big-Time program. And I wouldn’t expect the average recruit, club coach, parent, or swim fan to do this level of research. No worries. But with all due respect…I would kindly ask them…if we aren’t a Big-Time program, what does it say about this list? @swimswamnews @SwimmingWorld @kylesockwell
