By Justin Renck: When National Signing Day comes in February, there are always some players you wonder about. Will they really sign? What’s the hold up? Will they make it to campus? Well, we for sure don’t have to worry about that for 3 Cardinals for the class of 2013.

By Justin Renck: The Bob Cousy Collegiate Point Guard of the Year Award recognizes the top point guard in men’s basketball. The list started with 80 players, and is now down to 20. Peyton Siva made the cut, and is in that final 20!
Adam Lucas, who runs coveredinred.com, has come up with another awesome UofL wallpaper that we had to share. This one is of star wide receiver DeVante Parker! You can see the back picture is Parker’s great touchdown grab in the Sugar Bowl! For more of Adam’s work that he has shared with CSZ, click here. Make sure…
By Justin Renck: Former Kentucky legend (seems that way doesn’t it?) John Wall has been sidelined with a knee injury and could make his season debut with the Washington Wizards this weekend. I am not sure how many trips up and down the court he will be able to make though!
By Justin Renck: When the Cards take the floor tonight at Seton Hall, Peyton Siva will be getting himself closer to a career milestone, as well as climbing up a career leaders list at UofL.
by Jeremy Wahman The culture of college football in the city of Louisville is vastly changing. A mere few years ago the entire city was in despair. Now there’s an euphoria around the program. What a difference a few years make. On Wednesday night the University Of Louisville beat down the S.E.C. bully Florida 33-23 at…

By Justin Renck: I am aware that these shirts are made up for both teams going into a big game, and that the shirts of the losing team usually get sent overseas to underprivileged people. But of course this had to be shared! By the way, Louisville beat Florida in the Sugar Bowl! Just thought…
By Justin Renck: The good news for UofL football just continues! Charlie Strong just got his first committment for the class of 2014! Reggie Bonnafon, who will play QB this season for Trinity High School, has confirmed that he will be a Louisville Cardinal!

By Justin Renck: Had to take a trip over to some Ohio State message boards to see how they took the news of James Quick choosing the Cards over the Buckeyes. Most of them had the expected “We didn’t want/need him anyway.” Haha. Enjoy!
By Justin Renck: One of the highlights of the trip to New Orleans had to be the unofficial CSZ/Cards fans gathering at Pat O’Brien’s on Bourbon Street! It was a mixture of CSZ members, friends, and twitter followers. Like the rest of the town, Pat O’Brien’s was dominated by Cards fans!
The Sugar Bowl coverage just can not be done yet. Here are the ESPN highlights, followed by post-game comments from Charlie Strong and Teddy Bridgewater!
