Was fortunate to be at my mom’s side when she passed this evening. She was a wonderful loving, caring person, my biggest fan & was always, always there for me. While my heart is extremely heavy, I know she is reunited with my dad in heaven now.
It was an honor to work 18 years with such an icon for our basketball program, university & the entire Louisville community. Coach Crum was a winner as a coach, but also a champion as a person, a gentleman who was kind, generous and eager to offer his time to help others

Hoping for a great game & telecast/radio call for the UofL vs Texas game at MSG. Will be the first

game I haven’t attended in 40+ yrs, ending a run of 1,344 consecutive games. I’ll be cheering from the Ville! But, I DO get to watch my grandson play today!

UofL lost a great one with the passing of Coach Jerry Jones today. He played a huge role in the success of

on & off the court for over two decades as an assistant with Denny Crum. He was well-loved & appreciated by many and made a real impact in my life.

RIP Clifford Rozier. One of only six

UofL senior guard Quentin Snider received this basketball pregame today for becoming the 68th UofL player to score 1,000 career points, reaching that mark at Notre Dame on Jan. 16

So sad to hear of the passing of Coach Schnellenberger. With his pipe in hand, he inspired us to dream bigger & was the driving force for our beautiful stadium that we enjoy today. Rest In Peace Coach 🙏
RIP to Rob Butsch, who was the "flying" Cardinal Bird in Freedom Hall during a period in the 1990's before safety concerns grounded the pregame flights at UofL basketball games. Obituary:
Three years ago today,

was named interim head men's basketball coach at UofL. Appreciate his efforts as a coach and player for the Cardinals.

50 years at UofL?! I was truly fortunate & thankful to have nearly 40 of those years with Kathy beside me & I relied on her extensively. She’s extremely loyal, dependable, cleaned up a mountain of my mistakes & is a dear friend. Glad she can now enjoy a well-earned retirement!
Great to see Otis George, one of several members of the Cards’ 2005 Final Four team that will be at Saturday’s game vs. UNC. Watch for the team on the court during a timeout late in the first half.

So sad to hear of the passing of dear friend Jerry May, a beloved member of our UofL family. A 2011 inductee to the Kentucky Sports Hall of Fame, he took care of many Cardinal athletes (and me), including men’s basketball for three decades (1971-2001).

My wife Donna and sons Alex & Brady & grandkids have too often tolerated my absence, & I hope to make up some of that time now. I’m still at UofL a couple months, but am looking forward to grabbing a beverage this fall & cheering the Cards on from the stands. Stop by to say hi.
This has been unbelievable. I’m extremely humbled to be named the head coach for
@LouisvilleMBB
& thankful to share today with my family & my brothers.
Quentin Snider's 7 three-pointers in UofL's 75-68 victory at Virginia Tech today were the most for a Cardinal since Preston Knowles hit 7 vs Syracuse on Feb. 12, 2011.

Honored to be working courtside at another Final Four with
@GoCards
crew Chris Brawner, Scott Flavell, Jeff Peterman & Jason Bond. Great first game tonight!
And while I’m retiring from my current position, I expect to still be around to support Kenny and our basketball program in some role. But it’s time for me to be a bit selfish.
@CoachChrisMack
You looked good from my vantage point on the right. I know you were thrilled to be Stayin’ Alive with another great win & we’ll be back with more Night Fever on Friday vs. Robert Morris
Fun evening to see so many terrific people and celebrate Kathy Tronzo in her retirement after 50 years at

Extremely sad to hear of the passing of my friend whose heart was bigger than his towering stature. Aside from hoops, he was the tallest intern I ever had & we shared a lot of fun times over the years. Heartbreaking that Chief is no longer with us. Prayers to his family 🙏
