LOUISVILLE’S PASSING GAME COULD BE BOOM OR BUST The Cards have struggled to pass the ball for most of the season, with teams consistently bringing pressure to make things harder for Miller Moss.

Justin Wilcox made his career as a high-level defensive coordinator before taking over in Berkeley. His tenure started out okay, but the fanbase is starting to get a little restless after five straight losing seasons. His 2025 defense isn’t really the issue, but it hasn’t helped much in the goal of getting over the hump […]

We’d be remiss if we didn’t start today with an acknowledgement of what transpired in the city last night. Seeing UPS planes on a daily basis and taking pride in a global shipping company residing in our city is in the DNA of each and every Louisvillian. Virtually everyone in this city has spent time […]

An omen before I was even able to greet anyone with “Joyeaux la veille de la Toussaint.” The script was written. I didn’t need any admonition from Father Brennan, something like, “You’ll see me in hell, Seedy, […]

The good news is that we begin yet another exciting Louisville women’s basketball season!

I want to dive into the difference between the American goal tending/ basket interference rule and that for the rest of the globe. That was in play in the singular “controversial” moment of U of L’s draw and quartering of South Carolina State, 104-45. Because there wasn’t much tension after this: On the Cards’ opening […]
