A lot of us are having sports withdrawals. We miss seeing players with Louisville stitched across the chest of their jerseys take the field or court and compete. Well, to help with those withdrawals, the ACC Network is giving you a fix. The Cards are taking over the @accnetwork starting at midnight tonight! Details: https://t.co/2OQKw1wuAC#GoCards…

Louisville Men’s Basketball will host Michigan in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge this year. While we knew who the Cards would play and that they would be hosting at the KFC Yum! Center, we didn’t know the time of the game or the network we could view it on. Today UofL Athletics announced the game is…
In July 2018, Luke Hancock hired law firm Morgan and Morgan to help him and four other former Louisville players sue the NCAA for damaging their reputations and casting them in a false light after they vacated their records, wins, and the 2013 NCAA Championship. These vacations occurred due to an escort scandal that rocked…

Today, we received more details on what the lawsuit against the NCAA will look like. We now know that Gorgui Dieng, Tim Henderson, Mike Marra and Stephan Van Treese and Luke Hancock will be the players suing the NCAA in the case headed by Morgan and Morgan. Rick Pitino will not be part of the lawsuit,…
The Big man from the Ville got what he deserved today. Gorgui Dieng signed a 4 year $64 million dollar extension today. Somewhere Jeff Goodman is probably taking some credit. Gorgui left this heart felt message: https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=564668673725984&substory_index=0&id=132903963569126
In 2001 I heard rumors that Rick Pitino would likely be the coach to replace Denny Crum. Ironically, it was said that Pitino was choosing between Michigan and Louisville. It was also said that ultimately he chose Louisville because Michigan was a football school and he didn’t want to play second fiddle to any other…
I was scrolling through Twitter on a March Madness-less Friday. Looking for anything to help take my mind of things. As always, Twitter never let’s me down. I see the title: Teddy Bridgewater has fond memories of UofL’s March Madness. I was intrigued. 1) I love Louisville 2) I love Teddy 3) I love Gorgui….
This is a pretty cool graphic that shows all 22 first round NBA draft picks in UofL history. We have only had one #1 pick and that was Pervis Ellison back in 1989. Three times, we have had two first round picks. 2009 was Terrence Williams and Earl Clark. 1994 was Clifford Rozier and Greg…
Don’t ask Gorgui who is going to win the NBA title this season. He doesn’t care.
Perhaps I should wait until more information comes out. That is probably what a journalist or a professional would do. But since I am nothing more than a fan, I can let these things out whenever. I am well aware that this could be a huge overreaction post. I know that going into it. After…
This week on 55………. We talk Cardinal Camo…….YES…..Cardinal Camo. We go over huge upsets and letdown. We go over the wet, wet, win in South Florida and a slew of other great but random things that have happened this week. Glad to have 55 back for you guys after the hiatus last week. Without…
It was the last Summer League game for the New Orleans Pelicans and the Minnesota Timberwolves. The game is full of a lot of guys just trying to make the roster, some IÂ haven’t even heard of. I am not on the couch watching the game on my nice TV. And that’s because the game is…

He also had 3 assists and 3 blocks, along with 5 turnovers. He shot 5-15…
It was a pretty active day for former Cards in the NBA Summer League on Wednesday. Gorgui Dieng had the best overall game, while Luke Hancock and Kyle Kuric also saw action in their games. Here is how all three did… *Gorgui Dieng – The big man absolutely dominated the glass, grabbing 19 rebounds to…
The NBA has announced its All-Rookie teams, and Gorgui Dieng was able to make it on the Second Team. Early in the season, this probably sounded crazy. He didn’t start getting meaningful minutes until the last couple of months after Nikola Pekovic got injured for the Timberwolves. Gorgui made the most of his playing time,…
After a long hiatus I am back to bring you the week n review. Thanks for all that helped by praying for my family in a time of need. With that being said here is you Cardinal week in review from 4/28 through 5/6 Men’s Golf University of Louisville freshman Robert Geibel of the…
The NBA announced on Monday that 76ers point guard Michael Carter-Williams won the Rookie of the Year award. He averaged 16.7 points per game and won the award easily with 104 first place votes (out of 124). The bigger news here of course, is that Gorgui Dieng finished 6th in the voting! Considering he really…
On a night where Corey Brewer scored 51 points, it was Gorgs that stole the show! Minnesota beat Houston 112-110 and Dieng finished with 12 points, 20 rebounds 3 assists, 2 blocks, and 2 steals in 38 minutes!
Gorgui Dieng has been making all Louisville Cardinals fans proud lately, as he has been putting up double-doubles left and right for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He had a stretch of six games where he had five double-doubles. Even in the last three games, he either had double figures in points or rebounds, which is big…
