    I said the program and job are a mess and no good coach with a good gig is going there.....and that's exactly what happened.

    Good for Kelsey. Hopefully he has a handsome buyout if in 2 years those morons decide to can him.

    Kind of. For one, Kelsey is a good coach. Secondly though, Heird the ad, was adamant that they were not going to hire someone with any baggage whatsoever. They could have had Musselman, Wade, Beard etc but they were never targets. If you think about it, there isn't much out there that don't have some baggage along the way. There's Scott Drew at that level, and that's about it.

    But, you are paid hansomely, so there's that. If he can resurrect it, he will write his ticket.
    If this was 5-6 years ago, I'd agree with you. However, in this day and age of NIL and the transfer portal, it shouldn't take long. Louisville has deep deep pockets and a kind of insane but extremely passionate fanbase that will get behind a coach if he can win at a decent clip, and the team shows improvement.

    The best parody account on all of social media is Nick Adams. Out of the 7 day week, something he does or says and the reaction that follows is probably the funniest thing I see all day at least 4 out of 7 days.

    Three Year Letterman is great too.

    All Simon Charles does is post crazy stories without any sort of corroboration at all, and then sits back and watches the reactions. It looks good enough and seems plausible enough to fool enough people to make it funny. It's one of the more entertaining sports parody accounts.

    Yeah, I'm with you on that, I mean Louisville is a tier below true blue blood, but there's plenty of resources at a coach's disposal there. The good thing for Kelsey here is that Payne was so damn awful that anything he does in "Season 0" will be a major improvement. I think he has the ability to do well at Louisville, how well? Who knows, but it won't be for a lack of courses or anything like that. There's still appeal to play at Louisville and have home games in the Yum Center in my opinion.

    Wow, I take the misses to the eye doctor, am gone about 2-3 hours, and all kinds of crazy breaks out! Kelsey to Loserville and X picks up a guard. Reid enters the portal. What’s next?!

    If Schertz ends up at SLU does that mean he said no to Louisville in favor of SLU? That would certainly be a shot at Louisville as a program currently. SLU is the highest paying A10 job but it doesn't (obviously) have Louisville money.
