Anyone have any insights on the newest 6’5” commit from Danville?

Congrats to Dodgers Catcher and hometown hero Will Smith for winning his second world series with the Dodgers

After being committed to James Madison, Wilder landed an offer from Louisville - one that he was waiting for - and one that came in recent days. A quick flip to the Cardinals happened Thursday.

"It changes everything for me," Wilder said. "I trusted the process with Louisville and it turned out to be great."

and he breaks down why here:

Made a last second decision to fly in and go to the Clemson game this weekend. 1. Is anyone setting up a tailgate welcoming all UofL fans or is there a bar they are posting up at? 2. Where is the visitors section in the lower bowl at Clemson? Any advice or hospitality would be greatly welcomed.

Our blowout of JSU is looking better.

#1 Pitt is the real deal, and they are incredibly good at home. I know we are not expected to beat the Lady Panthers there, but this UL WVB Team is capable of beating any team in America when playing up to their best.

Supposedly we are a name to look out for for Niko Bundalo, according to a couple of Twitter Recruiting pages, including Trilly. Originally had a final 4 of UConn, UNC, MSU and Ohio State. But word is he is eliminating a few from this list and completely reevaluating his recruitment. Top 25-30 guy depending on what site you look at. Ty, any word on this?

I hope people do not overreact to this first game. Ucla is highly ranked and they are huge! My hopes are shooting and speed can dictate this game for UofL. If it grinds down to a half-court game I think it may be hard to keep them out of the paint and off the boards.

I'm not a season ticket holder-always been too busy but, through someone I met through coaching, am able to go to several games per year and sit fairly close to the bench. I have gone for several years. It is very interesting to me to watch the bench interactions, and the differences through the years.

1. You have to see the bench culture to believe it. Everyone on the bench is locked in to every play, from players, coaches, grad assistants, water boys, little kids, etc....everyone that exits the game goes down the line to slap 5 with every single person. Everyone is locked in listening to the huddle. PK's son has a seat on the bench, and there was a little girl that was also in the end zone seats and was close to the team during time outs. Assume it is an assistant coach's daughter. Late in the game a very young kid with Koren's jersey on came down to the corner with his own Louisville Cardinal basketball. No effort was made by any security to keep any of these kids away, which I think is great.

Bench is opposite the past 2 years, but also opposite Pitino's, in different ways.

2. Several guys up coaching, different guys for setting the offense and defense. Different players talked to the huddle before the coaches got there. Great culture, great leadership.

3. Nothing negative was ever really said to players making mistakes. Positivity on steroids. I do hope that PK has a "get in the a$$ mode" when it is needed and better opponents come along. I'm sure he does.

4. Concerned that physical teams could give us trouble. We don't appear to be a "physical" team. However, some bigs for opponents will have a hard time matching up to our bigs on the perimeter so it goes both ways.

5. Hope we can guard off the dribble better as the talent of opponents takes a big jump. I'm sure that is a point of emphasis this week.

I hope our players stay happy with 20 minutes per game that could get 30 minutes other places. ...so far culture looks awesome.


As a 50 year fan, I'm thrilled to death with the change. I don't know if PK is the best coach in the country, but he may be the best possible coach for us, following up 2 years of Captain Dumbledorf.

The ESPN crew who did the game stated he "made a business decision" on more than one occasion. Yesterday at his weekly presser Brohm said he was "not in agreement" with his decision and his opting out "was not in the best interest of the team". Caulin needs to turn in his gear and move on.

Louisville native C Will Smith ( UofL )
Lexington native P Walker Buehler (Vanderbilt )

for the rest of the season according to Demling. SMH

Not much chance of him winning but great to see him getting the recognition he deserves. He's #10 if you click on the image.

HaydenHarris and AnotherCFD both getting 10 of 12.

Tiebreaker goes to Hayden Harris with 59 total points vs 61 total points of Another CFD. Game score: 28-27=55 total points scored. So HH was closer. Brag on HarrisHayden. Special shoutout goes to cardrock who had the 28-27 final score corect...but with Duke as the winner. Close but no cigar my friend.

That tiebreaker score can really make a difference folks says Captain Obvious.

A sincere TY to all of the participants and better fortune in week 10.

My choker award goes to Duke at home this week....and not to Cal who beat down Oregon State pretty good. They were due.

Biggest surprise score to me was Pitt stomping the Orange out of the Cuse. What a shellecking they put down on them. thought ti would be closer.

Breakdown:


10 of 12 - HaydenHarris, Another CFD.

9 of 12 - koeterback12, CRTW, BooneCountyCd, TPACardfan, cocoa, CardsFirst, cardrock, knucklehank

8 of 12 - Lefors4Ever, PushupMan, sccard, mayo

6 of 12 - 73card, Flav unit, WaHoo

5 of 12 - cardfan25


TY AU for that glorious beatdown of UK even though I didn't pick you

Best and most entertaining game was the SMU Duke in a shootout with a crazy blocked FG game. IMO Duke was the better team that night....but upon tying up in OT went for 2 and failed. SMU was very lucky to win and their coach even sdaid so after game interview.

This was a good week for most picr's

Good fortune with this weeks games fellows. There are a couple of important good matchups. Just keep pic'n and grinnin!:

As a lot of us wants a new DC after the season, let’s have a discussion about who we want and whoever we discuss does the defense scheme that Brohm does.

I’ll start as who we absolutely won’t ask, Charlie Strong. It’s not because he left to go to Texas, but what happened off the field.

This kid is quickly climbing the ladder to be among the best receivers in UofL history. He won’t break any career marks, but man he gets deep, runs the slant over the middle, takes hits and just catches everything. The Shough-Brooks connection is becoming downright nasty.

Quickly becoming a force for the Niners. I love seeing that big “Louisville” next to college. We can definitely point to him as someone we developed into a pro, even though he was only here one year.

I have two tickets to game Saturday night that I can’t use because of a family emergency. They are in the Louisville section, TDS row LL. I can transfer them electronically. Asking $20 each. Email me at mikebrooks613@gmail.com if interested. Thanks
