The Louisville Cardinals have become a recruiting force seemingly overnight.

The most recent addition? Los Alamitos (California) playmaker DeAndre Moore Jr., the nation's No. 4 wide receiver

Following a successful "We want Moore" campaign for Moore, St. John Bosco quarterback and future Louisville signal-caller Pierce Clarkson has laid out the next part of the Cardinals' plan.

And it involved some big-time names.

Clarkson tagged four more prospects in the hopes of adding them to "FlyVille23," the social media moniker given to Louisville's 2023 recruiting class.

Georgia offensive lineman Madden Sanker is rated the nation's No. 4 interior offensive lineman, and is set for an official visit to Louisville on June 17.

Texas five-star running back Rueben Owens is the nation's top ball-carrier and is also set for a June 17 visit to Louisville.

Sensing a trend here?

Indiana three-star offensive tackle Luke Burgess holds offers from Florida State, Miami (Fla.), Michigan State, North Carolina, Oregon and many others. Like Sanker and Owens, he is visiting Louisville on June 17.

Similarly, IMG Academy (Florida) three-star offensive lineman Jordan Church is visiting Louisville alongside the three other primary targets. He holds offers from Florida State, Tennessee and several others.

Clarkson and his crew have been successful teaming up with the Cardinals coaching staff to lure elite talent to the program.

It appears they will continue to aim high in the class of 2023, targeting Sanker, Owens, Burgess and Church.
