The second important development for Louisville has been the emergence of Ron Dugans as an ace recruiter. Having success in Florida isn't new for the Cardinals or Charlie Strong, but until this year, the majority of the wins have come in south Florida and the Miami area. With Clint Hurtt on leave, Ron Dugans has picked up the slack in north Florida and the Jacksonville area in particular. Dugans has been instrumental in the commitments of De'Eric Culver, Isaiah Ford, DeSean Blair, Jeff Williams and George Rushing. His success has helped offset the loss of Hurtt, who may not return, depending on the outcome of his NCAA infractions case.
