Marching to the Dance: Hoopaholic’s Gazette
As upper echelon college hoops coaches go, Bill Self is relatively mild mannered. So I was drawn to the reports the other morning that he’d been tossed from the Jayhawks’ loss night before. In the first half. The foul call against his part time frosh superstar was truly horrible. It is universally believed by all […]
Reyne Smith traveled 40 hours to see Louisville’s final home game of the season
Just how special is the relationship between Louisville and “The Revivalists” team? Just look at Reyne Smith. Smith, the outside assassin who helped spearhead Louisville’s 27-win season a year ago, was back inside the KFC Yum Center Tuesday night for the first time since his Senior Night game. He sat courtside as the Cards toppled […]

Seedy K’s GameCap: Syracuse
There have been some scintillating encounters among the now 35 times Louisville and Syracuse have met. That harbinger of a championship on the horizon in January of ’86. When the alleged juggernaut Orange led by Pearl Washington and Rony Seikaly were ranked #4 in the land but shuffled out of an electric Freedom Hall on […]

CC Podcast: March is here, vibes are low

Louisville falls out of AP top 25 poll
For the first time this season, Louisville has fallen out of both the AP top 25 poll and the coaches poll. The good news? With Miami entering the rankings at No. 22, the Cards have one last chance to break their six-year road losing streak against top 25 opponents. So that’s a good thing, right? […]
Pat Kelsey talks on ACC coaches teleconference
The primary takeaways: —Film showed the team made a lot of undisciplined mistakes at the start of the second half of the Clemson game. —Mikel’s status for Tuesday’s game is unknown. He needs to fall less, but he also deserves to get more calls than he does. —It’s too late in the season to make […]

My name is Seedy K and I’m a hoopaholic. A lifelong Louisville Cardinals diehard hoopaholic. With an opinion. Or ten. All of which kicked in this morning, which is why I needed to share here at Hoopaholic’s Anonymous. This morning at theathletic.com, b-ball scribe Scott Dochterman ranked the Top 50 rivalries in college basketball. U […]

Cards Fall to Notre Dame on Senior Night
You would be forgiven for thinking it would be better off if Louisville did NOT get to host the first 2 rounds of the NCAA tournament in the Yum Center. Tonight the fans got to watch yet another loss on home court this time on Senior Night. Once again the Cards had the ball in […]
Seedy K’s GameCap: Clemson
The regression continues. Louisville remains ofer Littlejohn. Clemson had lost four in a row coming in. Including Ls to underwhelming Virginia Tech and Wake Forest. No problem against a Cardinal team that has lost its way. If in truth it knew where it was going ever. It’s like the agent at AAA gave them the […]
Louisville’s road woes continue in 80-75 loss at Clemson
Louisville’s struggles against quality opponents, particularly on the road, continued on Saturday afternoon with an 80-75 loss to a Clemson team that entered the weekend having lost four straight.

Hoopaholic’s Gazette: Coaching Consternation
Even the most optimistic of Louisville hoops fanatics understand the Cardinals have fallen short of expectations. Thus, as they say in support group settings, said expectations unrealized have led to resentments. Thereby, despite a 20-8 record and a fairly firm grasp of an invite to the Dance, the natives are restless. Not without some justification. […]
