It's so unbelievable that what transpired here the last two years ever happened. How can anyone ever defend the hiring of KP or even more giving him that second season?
Two seasons seem like such a short period of time, but it had all but destroyed Louisville hoops in the media. It looked like the University wasn't taking the men's basketball program seriously, so why should anyone else?
And all that changed with the arrival of a spirited young coach getting his shot with the big boys and putting together the most cohesive group of effort driven players not seen in over a decade.
I don't know how KP could ever step foot in this city for a long damn time.

Look at the bright side this year has been really fun to watch. Also, you know who is more upset with KP than fans, all the former players that made that hire happen. They know how bad it was because they actually got to see behind the curtain.
There is nothing worse than throwing your support behind someone and that person doing the exact opposite of what you expected. KP took the opportunity they gave him and pissed it away. He was lazy in everything he did. Let’s say Bridgeman was a major factor in bringing KP. The way KP treated this job had to piss Bridgeman off. It disrespectful to all those guys.
Guess what you no longer hear the negativity from the former players. KP put them on permanent mute. The former players that matter and aren’t bitter will support Kelsey because they understand basketball.

I don’t really blame Payne because I don’t think he wanted the job.
But Former players who knew him, his mentality, his personality, his ambitions, de facto FORCED him into the job. They KNEW him, and still pushed him into a position to fail
And to fail miserably.
Shame on them. In reality they were, and are not friends. To him or to UofL.
Any anger and hostility should be focused on that group.
Side note:
Karma is a bitch. I don’t know how much Jr is affected, but Wendy’s recently closed 700 franchises. That had to hit him somewhere.
