Despite having the Heisman Award winner and being in the top ten for most of the season, Louisville was unable to land a top-25 recruiting class. That being said, Bobby Petrino was able to land three, four-star prospects in the 2017 recruiting cycle.

The class is headlined by safety, CJ Avery, a four-star safety out of Missisippi. The Cardinals also signed top-250 player running back Colin Wilson and top-300 player cornerback Russ Yeast.

Overall, all but one of Louisville’s 2017 recruiting class were rated three-stars or better.
