I heard the news as announced on the 93.9 ESPN radio show, Mid-day with Marques Maybin by guest host Steve Rummage on Thursday, April 14th, that Bobby Petrino received a contract extension running through the 2023 season. To me, the duration of the contract didn’t matter because Bobby said that this was his ” destination…
Month: April 2016
Before the season ended all that danced through my head was: If both Fields & Young come back…WOW. Then the Music City Bowl happened. While it looked like it could be an injury that was bad, you just never know in sports. Then came the news. Trevon Young’s dad came out and told every one…
The saying usually goes “better late than never,” and that was the case as #3 Louisville beat #12 Kentucky 7-6 in a wild, thrilling comeback in front of 4,642 fans at Jim Patterson Stadium. A week after Kentucky almost delivered a comeback against Louisville at home, the Cardinals came through with one of their own….

The 6’4 255 pound Tight End will transfer to Louisville. He will have to sit out…
We all saw what the future holds for our football team. We saw it in Atlanta. We saw it in Lexington. We saw it vs Texas A&M. Lamar Jackson is it. We saw him put up video game numbers in the spring game. It’s not just us that necessarily have to see it though. Marques…
I have been doing Ky Derby previews for quite a few years now. My first big Derby win was in 1994 with Go For Gin. I know it doesn’t really fall under the category of Cardinal Athletics but it’s the one time of the year all local sports fans come together and celebrate Louisville…
We talked a few weeks ago about Terry Rozier and his expanded role on the Boston Celtics. My Boston Celtics. It was a role he earned. We talked about every opportunity he earned and took advantage of. This time it is one opportunity that has fallen into his lap. In game 1 of the…
Photo: Scott Utterback the CJ Yesterday, I unfortunately didn’t make it home from work until around 2 A.M. This threw everything off that I had planned and I was very nervous. Factoring in time to fall asleep and then a couple of hours actually sleeping, I had to start my Saturday run at 8:30 instead…
Even though I was highly disappointed by the attendance, the ones that did show up, showed out. The Cards did too as QB Lamar Jackson threw for 454 yards & 7 Touchdowns on 23-28 p[assing….at the half. Of course it was against the second string but it was evened out a little today so it still…
We had a blast this morning at Cardinal Towne on the CardinalSportsZone show on ESPN 93.9 The Ville! We talked about none other than the Spring Game as we led into the official coverage for the day on 93.9 FM The Ville! Your host Steve Rummage asked which player on Offense and Defense are you…
The Cards are wrapping up their spring friendly sessions and taking on the, if you’re a Cardinal fan (….Which I’m sure you are or you wouldn’t be here) unfavorite Michigan state Spartans. The Spartans aren’t highly touted but the Cards are always in the conversation and this match is high-profile, none the less.
We are all familiar with the ranking for basketball and football. They are constantly on Sportcenter and posted all over social media. Mainly because they are the two biggest revenue sports. At Louisville, we are proud of the success of both the football and basketball programs but we are also proud of the accomplishments of…
Louisville pitcher Drew Harrington, infielder Blake Tiberi and head coach Dan McDonnell spoke with the media today about this weekend’s upcoming series v. Clemson, thoughts from the FSU and UK games and more.
***Update*** It would be no shock if the Cards got a commitment from 4 Star Dual Threat QB Malik Cunningham this weekend at some point. And it wasn’t because Malik committed today after the spring game. The 6 foot tall QB from Montgomery, Alabama has been high on the Cards for some time now. Current talent evaluator…
As you may have heard on Mid-day with Marques Maybin today, guest host Steve Rummage broke the news on a contract extension for Bobby Petrino for 7 years and 30.623 million dollars. This is a deal that likely keeps Bobby here until he is ready to retire. According to Eric Crawford the new deal…
I’ve been on vacation for a week therefore I have a lot to catch up on so this week’s edition of Nunnsense will be a potpourri of topics. I was enjoying my family time on vacation so much that I didn’t even watch the college basketball national championship game. I knew that since I didn’t…
(By guest blogger, Samaki Walker: pictured) It seems as June 26, 1996 was just yesterday. We were young men eager to make our mark on the biggest stage. We would go on to see Ray Allen achieve great things, Steve Nash win MVP’s, and now Allen Iverson entering the Hall of Fame. Three of…
As you guys know, Alhaji Mohammed is a friend of mine. We go way back. I am going to put that aside for a few moments. I follow what University of Louisville athletes do after they leave as much as anyone I know. Whether it’s in the business world like Chris Current & Luke Hancock or it’s…
Another video from the new Mic’d up series. This time it is the Offensive Coordinator, Lonnie Galloway. Enjoy! Go Cards!
