Jeff Brohm’s 2026 high school recruiting class added its 15th member on Wednesday with the abrupt commitment of unranked prospect Krew Moledor from Gainesville, Georgia. Louisville was the first Power 4 program to offer the 6-foot-3, 280-pound interior offensive lineman who held eight lower-level offers, including Navy, Western Kentucky, East Tennessee State, and Troy. 

In a crucial part of the recruiting cycle, Brohm and his coaching staff are utilizing their summer camps on campus as an important aspect of their talent evaluation process, and last Sunday’s camp is where they became sold on Moledor enough to offer him a scholarship. After receiving the offer, Moledor quickly announced his commitment. 

How Louisville's transfer-heavy O-line strategy opens doors for developmental talent

He is the third offensive line commit in the class, joining Kentucky three-stars Bryten Close and Max Merz. Close joined the fray in April while Merz committed to the program back in September. 

With Brohm’s relatively small high school classes in 2024 and 2025, adding high school offensive linemen has not been a major priority for his coaching staff. However, Brohm has aggressively pursued veteran offensive linemen through the transfer portal and will likely have at least three first-year transfers starting up front this season. The other two likely starters, center Pete Nygra and right tackle Rasheed Miller, arrived at Louisville as transfers last offseason with two years of eligibility remaining. 

Louisville brought in seven offensive linemen through the transfer portal this year, with Brohm prioritizing immediate production over developmental players like Moledor. However, with veteran transfers running out of eligibility much quicker, Moledor and others could have a clear path to playing time as upperclassmen. 

While he’s an intriguing prospect that the Cardinals were in on before any other Power Confernece programs, the addition of Moledor to the class doesn’t soften the blow of losing four-star defensive line commit Kevontay Hugan to Indiana on Wednesday. Louisville’s class now sits at 28th in the nation, with Moledor as the only unranked prospect.
