Walz Presser Thursday 2 p.m.

[Sonja]

Jeff Walz will meet with the media today (on-line) at 2 p.m. today. No earth-shattering news is expected. as it was explained to me, "Coach hasn't held a presser in awhile, so it's a "catch-up, how we're doing" type of thing.

There should be plenty to discuss. Payton Verhulst and the U19's, Alexia Mobley and her signing and reclassification to the 2021 class, the five first-timers that'll join the program and whatever else the assorted media drags out.

I won't personally be monitoring the event, but UofL is good at getting these out pretty quickly for public listening after they occur and I'll add the link here probably tomorrow. I know Paulie plans on participating and he usually records these, so maybe he'll share his Cardinal Couple recording with me to bring to you.

I like everything he said, I like the comment about Alexia Mobley having a motor. He said she reminded him of Courtney Walton which is good but I thought of Hines Allen. I do like our non conference schedule and am looking forward to the competition.

He said they are going to by Covid protocol this season but he is hoping for a more normal season. I am going to try and make it to Louisville Live, has anybody been to one before. It also sounds like everyone is jelling together really good. I am excited about this season and I am really looking forward to watching this team.

I did come up with a video as well as audio link for Walz, just in case you want to see his unshaven mug.

I don't know if this is good ... or bad .... but I've gotten to the point where I totally and completely expect nothing but Final Four type excellence from Walz and gang.

I realize they didn't make it last year, but that was a covid year, and jacked up from beginning to end.

Looking forward to more hoops dominance from the ladies this year!

PG: I am right there too, and that is a good thing as it is based on the level of excellence that Jeff Walz brings to this program. Jeff’s Performance is reminiscent of Denny in those years prior to the 80 NC. We were right there, just missing the ring leading up to 1980.

I am fine with being competitive for a FF every year.

This team is loaded. It might be his deepest team that I can remember. The next four years should be pretty darn good
