4-star linebacker Stanquan Clark commits to Louisville

Miami (Fla.) Killian four-star linebacker Stanquan Clark has committed to Louisville, he announced Sunday afternoon.

The 6-foot-1, 210-pounder chose the Cardinals over more than a half dozen other finalists, which included Auburn, Kentucky, NC State and Rutgers.

Clark is the No. 338 overall prospect in the 2023 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 30 linebacker and the No. 64 senior player in the state of Florida.

The Cardinals were one of only two schools — along with Kentucky — to receive an official visit from Clark, who came to town in June for the program’s big visitor weekend. He joins a class that currently ranks No. 15 nationally in the On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings.

After finishing with the No. 51 class just a year ago, Louisville is on pace for its first its ever top-20 class in the modern recruiting era.

The Cardinals have commitments from five top-250 prospects and nine from blue-chip prospects ranked in the top 450 nationally, per the On3 Consensus. Highlighting that group are El Campo (Tex.) four-star running back Rueben Owens, Los Alamitos (Calif.) St. John Bosco four-star wide receiver DeAndre Moore Jr., Corona (Calif.) Centennial four-star cornerback Aaron Williams, Douglasville (Ga.) South Paulding four-star interior offensive lineman Madden Sanker and Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco four-star quarterback Pierce Clarkson.
