A recruiting pipeline from Louisville Male High School to Louisville’s football team has flowed over the past few decades with names such as Chris Redman, Ibn Green, Michael Bush, Montrell Jones, Doug Beaumont, Dexter Heyman and Grant Donovan.
Earlier this summer, Louisville added another athlete from the high school that ranks third in country with all time wins. Keion Wakefield, a three-star receiver and fourth-ranked player in Kentucky by Rivals, pledged to Louisville. The senior wide out has hauled in 81 catches, 1,615 yards and 25 touchdowns during his sophomore and junior campaigns.
