Denny Crum's 6th Favorite Website
If all you saw was the final score you might think this game was a cake-walk but if you actually watched the game you probably want to forget the first half. However as Coach Walz said, “This was probably the first game all year that I’ve seen us look as bad as we did in […]

Perspective #1: It was universally believed when Rick Pitino was named as Denny Crum’s successor, he would win another national title for U of L. He’d already won one. Been to the Final Four more than once. Coached two different NBA teams. Was generally regarded as one of the best in the biz. Pitino’s first […]

When you have two legitimate Top 20 teams testing each other, it’s never inevitable. But this U of L task in Knoxville against tall favorite Tennessee sure seemed close to that heading in. Well coached top level foe at its sold out home. One whose strength — inside scoring and rebounding — made it a […]

The narrative that Pat Kelsey’s Louisville teams are susceptible to being bullied by more physical opposition isn’t going away. Not after an 83-62 thumping at the hands of big, bad Tennessee Tuesday night in Knoxville. The Cardinals, playing without star freshman point guard Mikel Brown Jr., looked out of sorts from start to finish during […]

The 6’1 junior from North Carolina had previously been committed to South Carolina, but decommitted last month. He committed to U of L while on an unofficial visit to the school over the weekend. Playing for YNG Dreamerz in the […]

Should we have known from Week 0 that this was going to be a schizzy wackowhirl season of epical psychodramatic proportions? I imagine. Recall with me what happened in Dublin when Iowa State bested Kansas State in a Week Zero Battle o’ Erin. The winner of which, one sage — Guilty — predicted would make […]

Every quarter of this game felt like it’s own separate game. In the first quarter both teams went toe to toe and were scoring at a high clip ending at 26-24. Then in the second quarter there were long droughts for both teams and at halftime the score was only 38-33. The third quarter both […]

At Media Day before the season I noticed that still rehabbing Kasean Pryor’s hair was its natural color. Brownish. At least, not blonde. I asked him if he was going to go to the peroxide when he was back to playing? “Maybe.” “It might be a biblical thing,” I suggested, “you know, Samson and his […]

Louisville’s pretty tough to beat on an average shooting night. A good shooting night by the Cards is going to be enough to knock off most teams in the country. An exceptional shooting night by U of L? Well, Memphis State just found out what that looks like. The Cardinals connected on 18 of their […]

—According to Pete Thamel and Adam Schefter, Louisville WR Chris Bell suffered a torn ACL during the team’s loss at SMU last month. It’s believed to be a clean ACL tear, and Bell is set to have surgery this week with noted surgeon Dr. Dan Cooper in Dallas. Here’s hoping this doesn’t drop Chris out […]

Memory often misfires, then melds and merges. We think we remember something especially resonant. Then check the facts and discover being close but a little off from the timeline. Such as it is today, when sharing my personal favorite U of L over Memphis State memory. Which is why I’m going for a twofer, a […]

For the majority of the first quarter it appeared as though this might be a very long night for the Cards. With about 3:30 to go in the quarter the score was a paltry 8-6 and even after a scoring run that made the lead 21-12 going into the second quarter, Louisville shot just 14% […]

At least for the regular season anyhow. I was waffling about weighing in on the CFP and such as the Aldi’s Egg Yolk Bowl featuring North New Hampshire A&M vs. West New Mexico School of Podiatry. Both 5-7 but making it because there weren’t enough schools at .500 or better this year to fill out […]

As was widely anticipated, Louisville will not host Georgia for a football game in Sept. of 2026. The Cardinals will also not go to Athens to play in 2027. In light of the SEC moving to a 9-game conference schedule next season, UGA and U of L announced on Wednesday that they were “mutually agreeing” […]

With all due respect to the New Hampshire Wildcats*, they are no South Carolina. The biggest question coming into this game was whether or not Louisville could ride the momentum from their valiant performance against the Gamecocks a few nights before. When the Cards jumped out to a 20 point lead in the first quarter […]
