(Aurora, Ind.) - It is no secret where Brady Ballart will play college football. 

He has been verbally committed to the University of Louisville since September of 2024. But the excitement level went up an octave when Ballart received his official offer earlier this month from Head Coach Jeff Brohm. 

Ballart's love for Louisville is evident if you follow him on social media. He is often replying to fellow recruits, saying "Come be a Card." 

He recently joined the From The Pink Seats Podcast (State of Louisville), where he explained his love for the U of L. See a clip below. As reported earlier this year, Ballart intends to enroll early at Louisville this winter.
