I expect we will hear the deal is done in the next 24 hours.
Louisville will need to call a meeting of the UofL Athletic Association Board who will need approve the contract of the new coach before the hire is officially announced.
If word of the deal comes out today then they could have that ULAA meeting tomorrow.
On ULAA Board meetings, I believe they need 24 hours notice, but I am not certain on that (perhaps they can put people on notice and then cancel it later? I guess?)
So I am hoping to hear of a ULAA Board Meeting announcement sometime this afternoon which would indicate a deal is done/almost done and we could see a new coach tomorrow.
If the ULAA Board Meeting isn't announced until tomorrow, then new coach may be Wednesday.
Either way, they can bring Satterfield out at the basketball game on Wednesday night.
** 4 PM UPDATE **
We called it. At 4 pm Louisville announced a 4 pm Tuesday meeting of the ULAA Board.
They will be approving the contract terms of the new football coach.
4:30 UPDATE **
