You just don't bring something like that up unless they had heard something in the wind. He has done it to several other colleges before so nothing would surprise me. He'll be nice in cool in that white suit in Arizona. Louisville does not need him anymore. Construction has already begun on the new arena.
1.) He is not going to uproot his family at this stage in his life. He has moved his family (extended family) here and has even spent his own money to help build a dorm named after his late brother-in-law.

2.) Arizona cannot afford more than U of L. In the last two years Louisville has been THE MOST PROFITABLE BASKETBALL PROGRAM IN AMERICA PERIOD.

3.) What does Arizona have to offer that Louisville doesn't? Better tradition? NOPE! Better facilities? NOPE Better place to live? NOPE. Close to his roots? NOPE!

4.) Horse racing that he is involved in? NOPE!

5.) Top 10 recruiting classes three years in a row? NOPE!

This rumor started on the AZ fan board. They are the same rumors that started on the IU boards and the UK boards.

Nice try, thanks for playing RIBLUEFISH!
