Louisville basketball moves closer to landing next big-time star

In a downtime for sports, things are still heating up for Louisville basketball on the recruiting trail. Though it’s a dead period for Chris Mack and the Cardinals staff in regards to in-person visits, they and teams across the country are pulling out all the stops to stay in communication with prospective recruits.

Though many big-time graduate transfers have come and gone without choosing Louisville, it appears the staff is still going the hardest after just a handful of guys. Among that small group of players is Radford transfer Carlik Jones.

Louisville was the first team to reach out to Jones only hours after he put his name in the transfer portal, and it appears the staff has pushed all of its chips into the center of the table in an effort to land the top graduate transfer on the market.
