What’s going on at Louisville?

Recruiting is a lot different when your forced to follow rules. Even at 25% compliance of those rules
 
All things being equal, I think I’d rather have the coaching situation at UL than the one at Cuse.

Great battle of the under 500s going on right now. Pitt up 8 under 6.

A setup for Louisville to snatch Pitino away from Syracuse?

But seriously, as I approached the George Rogers Clark Bridge from Indiana back to Louisville on Sunday night, a digital billboard showed, "Bring Tom Jurich home."

With the way the SEC is making money from football, you may be right. But Louisville is still close to a blue blood program, LSU cannot even sniff their tournament accolades.

It just depends on if a coach wants to be at a football first school, and that will always be the case in the SEC except for Kentucky

Not sure if Louisville would be considered close to blue blood by most fans. Any “school” with more major scandals than titles should be eliminated from any blue blood discussion! ;)

I only meant that Louisville is barely relevant in a barely relevant league and LSU can definitely pay better.

What? Louisville is one of the best programs ever in college hoops. They have three national championships, a whole bunch of deep tournament runs, and are always top 10 in attendance. The ACC isn't barely relevant in basketball.

Strange post.

It was tongue in cheek

I know it's nitpicking, but see the statement below. I only posted it because they're one of the schools that always seems to get off much lighter than UConn would for the same violations.

"NCAA team championships. Louisville has won 2 NCAA team national championships. Men's (2) Basketball (2): 1980, 1986, 2013 (vacated)

Louisville basketball coaching search: The candidates Cardinals could target after Chris Mack ouster

Louisville joins Maryland as another high-major basketball program with a midseason vacancy. Here are the potential replacements for Mack.

cronin (lol yeeah right)
pearl
holtmann
oats
musselman
willard (hope not)
altman
cooley (hope not)
boynton
underwood
forbes
miller

I just saw a similar list in the Athletic. Not sure why Pearl would leave Auburn for Louisville. Oats is in a good situation as well. They were picking Kenny Payne from Knicks as the smart choice.

ACC may be trending down. No more Roy, K, and probably Boeheim after this year. UofL in a constant state of disarray, Pitt sucks, UVA stinks again. The league may be in for a few rough years

I soooooo want to make #onebidacc trend this year. Let's make it so!

I think Mack at Butler is a great call. I also wouldn’t be surprised with Pitino getting his old job back.

The boys over atsyracusefan.com are pining away for Pitino to replace Boeheim. I don’t know what is more sad, wanting to 86 your Hall of Fame coach, or wanting to replace him with one of the sleaziest names in basketball

this one predicted it would be Willard. that would stink for the BE.
 
Chris Mack is a quality coach and will land in a good place. Louisville is definitely a blueblood quality basketball school that has and is experiencing high levels of success in many other sports - men and women. The university has an unbelievable ability to raise money so they will hire basically whomever they really want. They have and will recruit at high levels.
I don't know what happened this year with the MBB program but it's always been a good program (even before Pitino and the OBE/ACC) and no reason to believe things will change for the worse.
I would not be surprised to see Bruce Pearl (who always coveted the UL HC job), Mick Cronin, Ed Cooley, Oats in the mix but front runners may be former players Scott Davenport and Kenny Payne.
