Louisville Aims for Historic Duo as Bidunga-Shelstad Visit Heats Up

Louisville is hosting top transfer targets Jackson Shelstad (No. 8 in the portal) and Flory Bidunga (No. 1) this weekend, with predictions leaning heavily in the Cardinals' favor for both. 247Sports and On3 have moved Louisville into strong or dominant positions for Shelstad and Bidunga, and On3 even flags a 100% chance for Bidunga. If Louisville lands the pair, Pat Kelsey’s Cards could become ACC title contenders and potentially NCAA contenders, though depth and shooting surrounding the big on-campus duo would still be a priority.
