Louisville basketball: How the “Super Six” can impact the Cards going forward

The Super Six. Louisville basketball finally landed its dream class after years of just “meh” recruiting for a fringe blue blood school under Rick Pitino, and fans could not have been more excited for it.

There is a McDonald’s All-American, a physical specimen, a pure scorer, two highly regarded project wings, and a hometown hero point guard. Everything you can ask for and more in a recruiting class had fans stoked for an already-loaded team in 2019-20.

However, through 15 games, Louisville has not seen much of its vaunted recruiting class. Jae’lyn Withers took a redshirt to start the season, and players like Josh Nickelberry and Aidan Igiehon are much more of projects than we initially thought.
