On Monday, Louisville's top target John Young released his list of top 6 schools: Georgia, Louisville, Purdue, Kentucky, Ohio State, and Michigan. The 4-star Christian Academy prospect told me that Louisville is in the top 6 because "I've really hit it off with the new staff".
Specifically, John Young cited Coach Satterfield and offensive line coach Dwayne Ledford as coaches he is exceptionally fond of. Compared to the last staff which Young got to know well, Louisville's new offensive line coach has one noticeable differences that Young points out.
"Ledford seems to care about his players on a personal level which the players react really well to" Young stated. "I’ve been to a couple of spring practices that I didn’t advertise. Coach Ledford is doing something special with that o line".
Young went on to state that he can tell Louisville's offensive line is responding a lot better to the new coaches. While Kentucky has been the perceived leader for some time now, Young including Louisville in his top 6 appears to be a little more than just a favor to the hometown school.
