Blessings      As I sit down to write this post I’m amazed at what we have done at CardinalSportsZone.com (follow us on twitter too @CardSportsZone) and i just can’t believe how far we have come in such a short time. In July me and steve toyed with the idea of starting our own UofL sports site. Since the…

Coaching Trail      Ok so today i thought i would talk about our great and not so great coaches in the time that i have watched UL football, which was since i was a kid. 6 coaches have come and five have gone. The reasons why the others have left are mostly because they have used the University of…

Russ Smith?????      As me and my brother Joey and my friend Chris were hanging out this summer, we started to realize that both Basketball and Football season were right around the corner. This was the football season we had been waiting on for 4 seasons after suffering thru Krags tenure and then Charlies strong first year….

What The Rivalry Means To Me…. What the rivalry means to me….cant be just summed up. My hatred for the University of Kentucky goes back to when I was just a little boy.

                                                                             Jeff Goodman, Dick Vitale,John Calipari and…..Me? What do we all have in common?

Or it could be Dick Vitale’s constant need to mention UK every 5 seconds during a UL game and predict impending…

My First Blog As I post the first blog for the website from my brand new Keyboard that my mom got me for Christmas, (pictured left) I think back to the year in UL sports and one thing really sticks to my mind. We should get ready for a ride. With our Football team seemingly on…

Brandon Radcliff We here at Cardinal Sports Zone were able to get a last minute interview with a football commit right before signing day.
