Louisville has announced a 1:30 pm press conference today.
Rumors are flying that they are announcing a postseason ban. We'll see.

Damn, that would be crazy if true. Kind of weird timing isn't?!

No better time to release news like that than the Friday before the Super Bowl.

Welp, that opens another spot for a team who otherwise might be left out of the tourney.

thanks L'ville and SMU

I skimmed through the article, not sure if it mentions this. Does this mean the NCAA won't punish UL? Or is there a chance they will be hit harder?

 

[UCalum08]

It would be nice to see some punishment on some of the leaders/administration/coaches/adults. That ban really only affects the current players and fan base. Time for some of the top dogs to lose money and even their position. I think it's a pretty coward act by the leaders of UL to do this now. I hope they get hit hard. Pitno has been a slime ball for far too long now.

It's ONLY been 4 years since the NCAA opened their UNC inquiry. Are they waiting for a weak Tarheel team before they impose sanctions???

Go Bearcats!

We wins over RPI #35 on a neutral court and #45 and #50 on the road.

In the South Carolina game, the announcers just said they went from 196 to 58 in tempo this year. And Frank Martin said it's bc he has a veteran team now that knows what he wants. Interesting concept.

Also, Calipari got kicked out 2 minutes into the game.

It seems like much larger jump in tempo for South Carolina however they are 7.6 better in tempo than last year.

UC is 6.3 better than last year. Our pace has increased year over year but we were 340 in pace last year, so ours just isn't as noticeable

I think that's the same ref that t'd up Mick against Butler. One of the worst officials around.

yep, doug sirmons. he's the absolute worst.

Would not mind drawing Providence in the First Round. They are one of the most overrated teams in terms of rankings vs metrics.

especially with our ability to shut down a team's star
