It seems there is an official college flag at https://staugustinerealestateforsale.com/locations/st-augustine/historic-st-augustine-homes-for-sale/ being displayed in 2019 (https://staugustinerealestateforsale.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/cdm07-historic.jpg) where the name of the college, along with the rampant lion, appear in gold on a crimson background. There is also a white flag used in this 2015 photo (http://www.amyscreativepursuits.com/2015/12/our-visit-to-flagler-college.html) but I have no idea what it has as the design.

Flagler College's lion shield is said to reflect the best of the College's heritage, history, and traditions. The rampant lion signifies strength and stability. On the shield the school colors are crimson and gold (based on the yellow and red of the Spanish flag). A gray was added as an accent color to provide additional depth and to permit some flexibility for the Saints athletic teams.

North American Vexillological Association

flag designed by Matthew Thomas, 23 July 2019

The 56th Annual Meeting of the North American Vexillological Association was hosted at Flagler College in June of 2022. NAVA is the largest organization of flag enthusiasts and scholars in the world. This special flag was designed for the meeting held at Flagler. Its designer was Matthew Thomas, a resident of the United Kingdom.
The NAVA 56 flag features a golden field to represent Florida, the "Sunshine State." The half Burgundy Cross represents the importance of the Spanish Empire to St. Augustine's founding and history. Above it appears a stylized outline of the Castillo de San Marcos, an important historical site and a symbol of the city. The blue bars at the bottom represent Matanzas Bay, on which St. Augustine sits, and the ocean beyond.
This flag was displayed at both the college and flown on the walls Castillo de San Marcos during this international event.
