    Notes from Louisville's final spring practice

    Thank you for the keeping us posted. Liked that about the Voth kid. You never know about an injury (Tre), his recovery time, his speed, etc. Very important to have a real nice back-up. Also, I was the one that sort of went out on a limb for Briggs Cherry. I like what you wrote about him (albeit)...

    I would say a Top 10 breakdown in the Elite 8 history! Turnovers & fouls will do it every time. We are in agreement concerning Michigan & Arizona as being the best of the last 4. Michigan looked powerful against UT for sure.

    Man, I'm I glad that I told my nephew to take Michigan & give the points. Wow!

    Yes, King concerning White House. We've discussed that (you may recall I have family in Westmoreland, Gallatin, etc.). I travel your way now/then. That said, I spoke on here several times about Vandy & their coach. Man, with Tanner, they play full court. Heck, they beat UT 2 out of 3 times this...

    Yeah Push & King, the folks over across the line in TN., really like Nate A. I'm telling you when he was hurt, several had thoughts like, 'are we going to end up like Louisville did' (pertaining to Mikel). Nate has no doubt become a force @ TN. Of course, they have a coach (Coach Barnes) that...

    Hey King, I've just posted over on the Collision Course concerning Coach Ben, the Iowa team play, etc. It would not surprise me if Ben's team beats the FIGHTING ILLINI!

    Hey King! It's good to hear from you, brother. Stay in-touch. Football on the horizon!!

    Louisville vs Alabama

    Wow! What a game! I haven't been able to watch the ladies much the last month. I don't remember that Scott girl playing that much. I do think that we need the girls to 'hit those free throws' as it shouldn't have been a one point game. They will need to against a tough Michigan team. Good game...

    Hey folks, I've got a family member that wants some input on our feelings with the UT and Miami of Ohio game. He said that if he takes UT that he has to give 11 1/2 on the Vegas site that he works with. Man, myself, I like the 32 - 1 record of the Redhawks and the way that they play. Personally...

    NCAAT (MBB)

    Hey, I liked their coaching, their hustle, the basketball knowledge, etc. I'm sure that they didn't have any million $, 1/2 or even 1/4 million $ players. But, they could play and play together. Reminded me alot of the way Belmont down here in Nashville plays. We could use 1 or 2 of those guys...

    NCAAT (MBB)

    You called it exactly how it happened....a collapse. Not a good luck for our league, for sure. What are we now - 2 out 5 I believe. Only Duke and UofL have won, but correct me if I'm wrong. We have 3 teams to play tomorrow - Virginia, Clemson & Miami. Only Virginia is more than a 2 1/2 pt...

    First Push, I'm pulling for us to win, period. But, I watched that game last night with the same interest. While Miami did have a 60 mile from home advantage, they practically won that game from start to finish. And, looked pretty darn good doing it, right? Actually, they sort of reminded me of...

    ACC Tourney

    Yeah Mr. Push, FSU played the Dukies as tough as anyone this year. They actually came back 3 times and had every chance in the world to win the game at the end. Could be that Duke might be venerable in one of the next two (maybe one if they lose tomorrow) in this tournament.

    Was driving in and just heard the final mins. Must of been a nice game to watch. Looks like they have us sitting at 3 1/2 pt. on the spread. I hope that we play it. We need to get up on them and stay 6 - 10 points ahead in 1st. half. Go Cards!!

    ACC Tourney

    Watched the last 10 mins. or so of that Orangemen & SMU game. Both teams wanted the game. Now, SMU seems to be tougher at home. So, I think it should be a close game if the Cuse show-up with their A game. If we have to play SMU, we better bring that A game such as we did against Miami past...
