Tyran Stokes
This one might be a long shot, but it is the Cardinals' dream. With Richardson visiting Louisville, the nation's No. 1 recruit Tyran Stokes could decide to visit Louisville for the Kansas showdown, or another weekend after he visits Oregon, USC, and Gonzaga. The Cardinals were the first team he visited, and with him being from Louisville, he might want to give them one last visit before he commits, as he visited them a year ago.
Stokes is the Cardinals' No. 1 target in the 2026 recruiting class. The Louisville native stands tall at 6-foot-7 and is an unstoppable force. The Cardinals have to beat Kentucky and others for his commitment, and with Richardson visiting Louisville, that lights a spark in him and gets his attention.
Louisville fans and the coaching staff have been recruiting Stokes for quite some time now. If Louisville can earn one final visit before November and his commitment date, then the Cardinals could be set up for a massive announcement from the nation's No. 1 recruit.
