Beat by St Mary's by 13 points! May open up a #1 Seed.

Go Cards!

would not be some kind of second coming. Then again, maybe it is!!

This team makes me feel like Charlie Brown. I'm Charlie, the Cards are Lucy! They keep yanking that football away from me.

Quick observations:

* Talent is lacking to beat the big boys this season
* Again our depth is a killer
* Our team has terribly low basketball IQ
* Too many empty possessions without so much as a field goal attempt
* Fall in love all you want with Nwora's stat line but I am frustrated by him. He is a turnover waiting to happen when he puts the ball on the floor. I'm also fairly certain that two huge offensive rebounds by Virginia around the 6-8 min mark were due to him not blocking out. He's also a lazy defender. He easily gives back half his points most games IMO.

Gawd, I cannot stand Virginia. We'll get them soon.

It's going to be impossible to even think of Cards winning this game not even due to the talent gap. It's 1. the return of Zion
2. it's in Carolina home court bascially
3. State of Carolina the ACC tourney wants to see UNC vs Duke with Zion plain and simple.
Watch the officiating first 5-10 minutes Cards going to be done.

Sullivan posted a link on twitter of the Knoxville newspaper calling for the Tennessee WBB coach to be fired. Followed by Jeff Walz obviously being named a candidate for such a high profile program, but further went into why Walz would or should seriously considerate it this time, and may be wooed enough to take it. Is this something to keep a close eye on?

Results of the MRI yesterday show that Arica Carter has a knee contusion, is in pain, but should be available for first round NCAA action.

Although painful, this is better than a torn ACL or other maladies that can happen to the knee. R.I.C.E treatment is usually the course for recovery..

Really dont understand the doom and gloom attitude some posters on this board have regarding our Athletic Department’s financial situation

Was surprised while watching ESPN last night that Lenardi has the Longhorns as one of the last 4 into the NCAA Tournament. They are 16-15. They have beaten UNC and Kansas.
Unless they have played the toughest schedule in the Country, I don't think a team that has lost 15 games deserves to be in the tournament.

I really hate it for Romeo because I like him.

But their overweight, meth using fanbase can fold up those Candy Stripe pants and put them away for another season!

Unless the NIT comes calling.

You guys were really smoking tonight. Pardon me if I don't wish you a damned bit of luck for tomorrow night's game.

Hope it's a good game, the winner goes on to win the ACCT, and both teams come thru without any new injuries for the Dance.

See you guys afterwards.

While Louisville fans are fully aware of starting offensive lineman Cole Bentley, some may not be following Cole's younger brother Ben Bentley, a member for the class of 2020. The Belfry (KY) prospect visited Louisville this past week and was hoping to watch his older brother in the Spring Showcase but ended up going home early when the Bentley's found out that Cole wasn't going to be able to participate. While he hasn't heard from any position coaches yet, Bentley did say that Pete Nochta has reached out to him and extended an invite.

"Pete is who invited me down so I could meet the new coaches", Bentley stated. " just have to get in front of them this summer at a camp".

So how interested is Bentley in Louisville and could playing in his older brother's shadow be a drawback?

"I like it so far, I’m not so much worried about being a shadow with how we play different positions. As far as set on trying to get in one place or anything I’m still completely open. I went to EKU already and have Virginia and possibly Kentucky left" Bentley said. "I mean I would love to play for the program just because I believe it’s on the way back up with this new staff. I just want to be comfortable where I go and a lot truly matters on who shows me the most love. I know I can play at any level of college just because I will outwork everyone to get where I want or to where I can play. So I just have to try to get in better contact with Louisville and build a relationship with the coaches.

While most schools have been looking at the 6'0" 190lbs athlete as a running back/slot receiver, Eastern Kentucky likes Bentley at safety. Over the past two seasons Bentley has recorded over 150 tackles and has 5 interceptions.

Even though Bentley is interested in Louisville and is wanting the Cardinals to recruit him, the Belfry prospect says that a couple schools do currently have an advantage.

"The schools who I stay in constant contact with right now would be Virginia and EKU and in the end that will be something I take into big consideration even those are two completely different size schools just because they are sort of taking the first risk and showing hope in me" remarked Bentley.

I didn't think we would hit that mark this year. But with wins over Michigan State at home and UNC on the road. And close calls games against UVA, Duke, UT, and Marqette. This team has shown it has the ability to win the big ones and the future looks bright with one of the top recruiting classes ever coming in.

It doesn’t involve UofL (Thank god), but what I found interesting is it was discovered while the FBI was conducting undercover investigation into something else. Wonder what that something else was? Hmm.

The 20th win extends a long streak of consecutive 20 win seasons. Not sure the number but I believe there's only two teams with longer streaks. (Kansas, Gonzaga)

Go Cards!

thought the ref waved it off. On the TV the put three points to make it 5 at the time, took it down back to 3, then put it back up to 5. Watched ESPN telecast, Rece Davis and Ellis never caught or questioned it!

Cards up 10-3 too of 7.

Kinda shocked by this.

Article in Houston Chronicle yesterday said Texas A & M Coach Billy Kennedy was not going to be retained. Indicated the AD's top target is Buzz Williams. Williams grew up in Texas and A & M is a great school. Would not be surprised if he takes the Job if offered.

Interesting CJ article describing the differences in Mack's contract language resulting from the experience with Pitino's contract.
