I know this is the basketball forum, but since the men's program is the only national champion in history of the university, I feel it's appropriate for me to vent here.

I told my wife I would be shocked if the Volleyball team beat Penn State today for the title. She rolled her eyes like usual, but I was correct because it's against the rules for UofL to win a national championship in any major sport.

That's what it seems like with Cards sports. The baseball team was dominant for over a decade. No world series title. The women's basketball team gets to the title game twice and has to face the juggernaut Uconn teams. And don't forget the horrible no foul call that kept the ladies from playing ND in the finals.

The football program hasn't really had a chance to play for it all. Some say the Rutgers loss or the UCF loss, but we don't know for sure Louisville would have made the title game had they won both games. But still, it took bullshit to lose both those games to ever know.

Just the men's hoops program has won it all but the last one in 2013 was of course vacated out of spite and ignorance. I wouldn't be shocked if the 1980 and 1986 titles were removed over some BS. That's how unfortunate it is at the University of Louisville.

Now I know there's been champions in the Olympic sports programs and the cheerleading program has been the "UCLA hoops" of that competition. But for the major sports that now includes Volleyball and soccer, the ultimate prize always eludes the Ville. Remember several years ago the men's soccer team lost in the finals.

I guess the men's basketball team has to win another title so the other sports teams can win one? The curse has to be broken eventually.

Just not meant to be for the Cards. Not having DeBeer was huge.

Props to Penn St. They are for real..
