I was hoping we would not blow our chance to pass uk in the rankings.

LOUISVILLE VS PITT GAME THREAD- 6PM ESPN2
- Thread starter shadow force
- Start date
Chucky Hepburn proves over and over how much of a winning player he is. In this game, he makes all 6 of his 3 point shots in the first half. I'm sure those in the stands who were close to the floor felt the warmth of the heat check coming from Hepburn.
But in the 2nd half he didn't even take a 3 point shot and finished with 37 points anyway. Now how many players would not take another 3 point shot after making six out of six? He's all about winning.
I think there's several coaches right now who are final 4 contenders who are lamenting not going after Hepburn in the portal. He is the QB of the team on both offense and defense and he's as dedicated to winning as anyone.
If he was doing this at Kansas or Uconn he would be on the Naismith list for player of the year.

The crowd tonight was fantastic! Great game… refs sucked… the stripe out looked great! When Chucky when on that shooting streak the crowd went crazy.
UL Love affair with Chucky, the team and this staff is so great to see!
Capel is a class act, and his post game comments about Chucky will advance his chances for National accolades, and I appreciated his sentiments about UL’s arena experience returning to our traditional past; those comments bring added respect to college basketball fans and media alike.
Make no mistake, that Pitt team is a whole lot better than their record, as the combination of their talent and size contributed to Scott’s struggles and our inability to post down low with more success. They were positioned for an upset win until they missed those 9 consecutive 3s.

Pitt played their hearts out,leaving everything they had on the court. It took some herculean performances from our team to stave off defeat.
I hope everyone appreciates what this Very experienced team is going on the court. And then, realize how much of this experience will not be back next year. Hepburn is amazing. You don’t get this level of savvy with a FR no matter how talented they may be.
You have it right, Mr. Bardman! Haven't watched the first half but will later. Hepburn is who they turn to when the going gets tough. And, Smith and Chucky do feed off of each other. Again, one game at a time. It's tough these days to have a long steak - but, 17 out of the 18, I believe. Amazing! Wow! Great coaching and players that want to play together. Go Cards! We're playing like a Top 15 team, imo.
