This is my first official post at CSZ and I debated a multitude of things to write about. Starting with basketball was simple. While we await the bowl game, basketball is at the forefront of Louisville sports and there is no better way to spend the holidays than to debate something regarding Louisville sports. So…

Louisville PROUD: The Louisville Cardinals and the Kentucky Wildcats Battle for the Bluegrass is the nation’s most heated rivalries. The Cardinals head to a hostile Rupp Arena on Thursday evening, hoping to end the No. 8 Cats win streak.
An impressive showing on the road in East Lansing on Wednesday that ended in a 4 point loss to the (now) number 1 team in the country, plus a blowout against Grand Canyon has the Louisville basketball team climbing the Top 25 polls this week. The Cards were ranked 24 and 22 last week in…
The women’s basketball team is trying to get back on track, and they did that on Saturday as they beat Valparaiso 75-42 to improve to 3-4 on the season. Next up for the Cards will be a road game at #11 Kentucky on Thursday at 7:00 on the SEC Network. After the game on Saturday,…
The Cards beat Grand Canyon 111-63 on Saturday afternoon. After the game, Rick Pitino, Donovan Mitchell, Trey Lewis, and Ray Spalding gave their comments. Coach Pitino decided to go with his Al Borland shirt.
On today’s show, Steve and I were joined by Dave Magee of the Red Rage Tailgate. We talked about the Michigan State basketball game, discussed possible bowl scenarios for the Cards, and more. Click below to listen!
After undergoing his third surgery, Kyle Kuric says on twitter that he has been released from the hospital! This surgery was planned and was not an emergency, but it is great news to hear that he is on the road to recovery.
There are some times where I just have to post something that is non-UofL related. This is one of those times. Jaleel White, aka Steve Urkel, gave his thoughts on the UCLA-UK basketball game from Thursday night. There isn’t much more for me to say here. I just leave you with the video.
Bloggin’ Rick decided he wasn’t going to talk to the media after Wednesday night’s game. Instead, he figures you can read his blog for any comments. That is just how Bloggin’ Rick rolls.
Before we fully move on to Grand Canyon, here is what Tom Izzo, Denzel Valentine, and Bryn Forbes had to say about the Cards on Wednesday night.
I really am going to try and make this quick. I don’t have too much time right now, and if I don’t get this posted now, it will be very late tonight before I can get to it. I prefer to go ahead and knock it out, and move on from this game. So here…
This one hurt, but the Cards will be just fine.
On Wednesday night at 7:15, the Louisville Cardinals (5-0) will face their toughest opponent of the young 2015-16 season when they take on Michigan State (7-0) in a true road game, which is somewhat rare for big-time non-conference games.
Kyle Kuric underwent another surgery today, but this one was not a surprise. We knew this one was coming. In fact, it was originally scheduled for last Wednesday but they moved it to today, which I thought was good because then Kyle got to enjoy Thanksgiving with his family. Kuric’s mom Judi posted this update…
Some people wondered how long it would take before the Cards made their way into the Top 25 polls. Now we know it took until a 5-0 start. The Cards now find themselves in both the AP and the Coaches poll this week at 24 and 22, respectively. That ranking will be put to the…
Louisville freshman Deng Adel has missed the last two games for the Cards, and according to Mike Rutherford of Card Chronicle (and then according to Pitino), he will miss two more weeks.
Welcome to the this week’s edition of This Week In Cardinal Athletics or T.W.I.C.A. Every Friday, I will post the schedule for the upcoming week. I know what you are saying….It’s not Friday Jeremy! You are correct. I am posting a day early due to the Thanksgiving holiday. I hope you all have a sfae and…

Bloggin’ Rick Pitino is back on the inter-webs to give his thoughts on the 85-41 victory over St. Francis. With a score like that, you would think that all is well in the mind of Coach Pitino. Also, if you think that, you probably aren’t a coach. We are never satisfied! In his latest blog,…
