I agree and am a fan. I wish it could have worked out better at UofL.
The one and only interaction I had with Mack was not good.
He was pretty arrogant.
Maybe it was bad day. But you only get one chance to make a first impression.

Congratulations to Coach Mack. I’m sure he regrets some of the things that happened during his Louisville tenure.
It's the little things in life that can cause the biggest problems. CCM is not that outgoing and IMO out of his comfort zone while at Louisville. That comes from a family friend who is involved in athlete charities and promotions. Her comment was 'Too much west side of Cincy in his DNA." Perfect fit at Xavier and should never have left.
This is where an AD and SID need to step in and insulate the HC from making mistakes like what happened here. Mack thought he was doing the right thing, when in fact he could not have been more misdirected. Having a President with one foot out the door only insured his departure.
I've said many times on here that Mack got the shaft here. I think he was a good coach and could've done really well under different circumstances. Coming in behind Pitino was bad enough but add in covid and a President trying to make a name for herself and an AD that wasnt experienced enough to help him and an assistant stabbing him in the back and blackmailing him. Good Luck to Mack !!
Mack’s a very good coach, but by his own admission he wasn’t a good fit here. He said he really didn’t appreciate on how visible the HC was until he experienced it himself. I wish he and his family the best.
