I stand corrected, because Louisville is in the state of Kentucky which touches West Virginia and because West Virginia is in the Big East conference, the same as Louisville, then all teams residing in a state that touches the boundaries of Kentucky or the Big East conference are hereby "Officially on the U of L roster". This is the ONLY way Louisville Basketball will ever have a chance against the Big Blue.

History lesson, 1986 and you say we live in the past. I do believe UK has 2 titles a full 10 years after Louisville's last glory day, but since you are happy for an Elite 8, then I guess you consider those Back to Back Elite 8 seasons as technically NCAA Champions. Do they even give out banners for Elite 8 teams? Surely you know since this is considered a successful season for the Big Red.
Crasp Woody, the only team I see around these parts celrbating an Elite 8 appearance are the Cats from last season. You remember that team, five first round draft picks, the greatest day in UK basketball history. I heard they were going to hang an Elite 8 banner for that team, but the figured it would eventually have to take it down.
