Pat Kelsey named Louisville's next basketball coach
TheDeuce replied to 16thBBall Fan's topic in College Basketball
He has an edge, and that is also a requirement at Louisville. If he's successful, that will go a LONG way with the fans. -

I've cooled off. To be honest, my frustration is much more centered around the chaos of the search, rather than it being Kelsey. That's not his fault. Initially, I love his personality and the fire it seems he has. Seems like he has a tenacious work ethic, which is required. I do think he could win over the fan base eventually with that. -
I don't think that's true.

You're right. It just sucks. Basketball hasn't been fun around here for a decade. I'm over it.

Kill me.

This is a good hire for UK.

You really do hate to see it.
-
I don't think it's a factor any more than his overall resume is. A lot of Louisville fans really liked Mack, myself included.

Everyone has known for at least a year we'd be searching for another coach. I don't care that Scott Drew said no. That was expected, and that's not a knock on Heird. He took a shot at a "premier" coach and he chose not to come. I'm good with that. We were led to believe that there was always a "clear #2 that would take the job" in the event Drew said no. That was supposedly Dusty May. Of course we'll never know the specifics of what happened, but as of about noon this past Saturday, everyone at Louisville was convinced May was coming. By that night, he signed a deal with Michigan. It's come to light since then that apparently May wasn't keen on the idea of being in the spotlight like he would be as Louisville's coach. How do we not know that already? What were we doing in the vetting process? Since then, we've heard an assortment of less than stellar names. It looks like there was no plan in place after Drew, and that simply can't happen. Now we're down to Josh Schertz and Pat Kelsey? That's embarrassing. Heird's career rests on this hire, and it's not looking good at this point.

I've been trying to give Josh Heird the benefit of the doubt the entire time he's been AD, but he's botched this just about as bad as you possibly could.
-
He's one we haven't heard much about and I can't figure out why.
-
Come on down, Richard.
-
Yeah, I'm in agreement with everyone else. Things are changing quickly, and who really knows where they are going.

Mitch: Hey Cal, you wanna leave? Cal: Nope. Mitch: Okay sounds great.
