March 21, 20188 yr I have to believe if Mack goes to UL, Steele is the new XU coach. He'd be on the list. Kelsey would be on as well. I'm curious what non-Xavier coaches show interest.
March 21, 20188 yr I’ve watched a boatload of Xavier in the last few years. Mack’s teams can be really fun and it’s hard not to like him. I’ll be thrilled if Mack is the dude in Louisville.

Hope they get the deal done. He'd be a great get for UL. And if they offer him, I can't see him turning down a high dollar, long-term contract.
March 22, 20188 yr Tyra and Mack met in Louisville recently didn’t they? I saw reports that they did on I wanna say Monday or Tuesday night. Whatever night it was, Mack put a picture of him and his family at a Cincinnati Hibachi grill up on Twitter. Obviously doesn't mean anything, but seemed to contradict the reports. I'd imagine they've met by now though.
March 22, 20188 yr Louisville has been well-known for their defensive prowess over the last decade or so. Mack is a great coach IMO, but his teams typically don't play great defense. If he's the choice, it'll be interesting seeing how the Louisville faithful react to the stark change in style. Xavier under Mack had an average Kenpom defensive efficiency rating of 55. Louisville in that same time frame has had an average of 15th.

Bet you could find him at a local sports bar from time to time, unless this makes him big time. Seen him at Longnecks in Wilder off an on over the years. Not at the bar, but more on the eating side of the place.

I used to see him a lot, and he was always working. The only time he didn't have an ipad, laptop, or notepad with him was his daughter's soccer games.

The only time he didn't have an ipad, laptop, or notepad with him was his daughter's soccer games. I've seen him a couple times at Longnecks over the years. Typically on a Saturday night right after a Xavier home game. Most recent was the Georgetown game.

Always seemed laid back and like a cool dude. But please, nobody misconstrue that as me saying he was sitting with his elbows on the bar throwing them back.
