I stopped by the Mall St Matthews today to say good-bye and thanks to Kyle Kuric and Chris Smith. These guys put their stamp on the Cardinal program. Kyle had some games that will never be forgotten and Chris stepped up with some big shots during the Final Four run. These guys did it with style and grace. Both are very classy guys and both have a lot of character. I know these guys are going to be as successful in life as they were in the Cardinal RED.

It’s been great reading all of the headlines for the last couple of days especially when they read as follows: “Louisville basketball tops UK, nation in ‘intrinsic value’ calculation,” “Cardinals most valuable in college hoops,” and my personal favorite “The nations most valuable program ( isn’t Kentucky).”
In one of the articles the writer talks about how we were beat on the court, but have the last laugh. I didn’t laugh but I sure do get a chuckle out of being the most valuable basketball program in the state of Kentucky.
