On January 7th, the Louisville football program could find itself in some familiar territory on national television.  Last January, shortly after the first half of the U.S. Army All-American Bowl game Louisville received commitments from Gerod Holliman and Andrew Johnson.  For this years All-American game, the Cardinals are hoping to have a similar feat with four star Miami Norland linebacker Keith Brown and four star Charlotte (N.C) linebacker Nick Dawson.

The 6′-1″ 225-pound Brown announced that he will be making his final college decision during the telecast of this years U.S. Army All-America Bowl.  That decision will be made between Louisville, Miami & Illinois.  Brown at one time throughout the recruiting process has been committed to both Miami and Illinois.  Brown’s existing relationships with current Louisville players Teddy Bridgewater, Michaelee Harris, Eli Rogers & Corvin Lamb should bode well for the Cardinals.  Even more so the playing time that Bridgewater, Harris & and Rogers received as freshman.

Dawson has narrowed his list down to Louisville, Clemson & N.C. State.  At 6′-3″ & 228 pounds he possesses the prototypical size for a Charlie Strong linebacking corp. As we reported last month, the stud linebacker had listed Louisville as his favorite.
 
Head coach Charlie Strong has focused much of his recruiting efforts to strengthen the pipeline in the sunshine state.  Let’s hope that continues with both Keith Brown & Nick Dawson.  The U.S. Army All-American Bowl will be broadcast nationally by NBC on January 7th at 1:00 EST.
