BIG EAST DOMINATION

Uploaded from the Photobucket iPhone App

The University of Louisville has been in the Big East since 2005. As members the Cardinals sports teams have appeared in a BCS game, Final Four, College World Series, and Women’s Final Four. To say that Louisville’s athletic department has been successful as a member of the Big East is an understatement. Now the Cardinals are making headlines again for winning 8 Big East titles for the 2011-2012 sports season. This is more than any other team.

We have done well in every conference we’ve been associated with but have really stepped it up since being members of the Big East. I’d like to send out a big kudos to volleyball, women’s soccer, women’s swimming, men’s tennis, softball, women’s track field, football, and basketball for getting it done. You have made us all very proud, and have added a new swagger to the cardinal nation.

Talk is increasing everyday about further expansion of the Big 12. And it is of popular opinion that Louisville will pack its bags and move if they get the call. I’ve got news for the Big 12. Get ready because our athletic program is as strong as any in the country and we have proven that while being members in the Big East.

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.

THE MOST VALUABLE PROGRAM!

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.
