While he is only listed as a 2-star currently by Rivals, Louisville's first commitment in the class of 2020, Ronald Delancy, is an impressive prospect that Louisville was able to land before his recruitment really blew up. A Miami Northwestern prospect (yes, Teddy Bridgewater's Miami NW), Delancy has a good frame for a DB (6'0") with great speed and the ability to break on a ball in an instant. While he may be able to grow into a safety down the road with his frame, Delancy has the skillset and athleticism to be a lockdown corner you can put on an island and completely neutralize one side of the field.

"Louisville's the school for me", Delancy stated. "Like I have watched highlights of other players and I was just sitting there like dang, that could be me. I pictured myself at Louisville".

Knowing two players on Louisville's current roster, Tutu Atwell Jr and Trenell Troutman, Delancy said that the previous success of Miami Northwestern athletes at Louisville didn't really play much of a role in his commitment here, although he did acknowledge the pipeline.

"Miami Northwestern is a very great program to be at! But I tell you no lie, Miami Northwestern and Louisville has a great connection! And both have two great programs so...".

Louisville's new quarterbacks coach, Frank Ponce used his South Florida connections to pull Delancy out of Miami and Louisville's most recent commitment thinks highly of the former Appalachian St. coach.

"Coach Frank is a great man, inspirational, encouraging coach". said Delancy.
