Louisville football spring practice is officially in full swing, which also means recruiting is at a crucial point right now.
The Cardinals are currently hosting multiple 4-star athletes on their campus, as many were seen at KFC Yum! Center for the Louisville basketball game on Wednesday night, as the Cardinals defeated Cal in a 17-point win.
UofL is now looking to the future and is getting ahead of other major universities in the class of 2027. Jeff Brohm and Deion Branch secured a key visit from one of this class's most highly recruited wide receivers.
Louisville football secures spring visit from elite 4-star WR
Quentin Burrell out of Chicago, Ill. traveled to Louisville this week and visited the Cardinals football program. He took to X to thank coaches Deion Branch and Jeff Brohm. Burrell has become a major target for Brohm and Branch, as he is one of the best wideouts in his class. This early visit from such a talented 4-star athlete is vital for the Louisville football recruiting process in the class of 2027.
Had a great time @LouisvilleFB today! Appreciate your time and hospitality @deionbranch84 & @CoachMaslowski @EDGYTIM @GregSmithRivals @AllenTrieu @Jordanlynch06 pic.twitter.com/FGzpxsJ14H
— Quentin Burrell | 2027 WR (@quentinburrell7) March 7, 2025
Burrell is ranked as high as No. 110 in the class of 2027, No. 4 in the state of Illinois, and the eleventh best wide receiver in the class, according to Rivals. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound receiver has 14 offers already and currently has offers from Michigan, Ole Miss, and Michigan State. He is also getting recruited by Notre Dame and USC.
Louisville football recently just promoted Deion Brach to wide receiver coach, and if the Cardinals can land this unanimous 4-star prospect in the class of 2027, it will show how great of a hire this is. Tom Brady even took to social media to let the Cardinals fans know just how great of a player and coach he is.
Burell plans to go ahead and visit Missouri, Michigan, and Wisconsin later in this month. This star receiver has secured 75 receptions for 1,257 yards and 18 touchdowns in his young high school career and has demonstrated his pure talents.
Louisville football made their official offer just last month on Feb. 14, and are happy they were able to set the tone for this superstar wide receiver. Jeff Brohm and his Cardinals continue to amp up the recruiting, and hopefully, with former NFL star Deion Branch as a wide receiver coach, the Cardinals can land Quentin Burrell, who has the potential to be one of the best wideouts in the class of 2027.
