Heck, put them in the SEC and they wopuld be in second place in the conference. Its not like they are competing against tomato cans every night. I am serious, I for the life of me can't understand some of these comments. Jeez, they lost by 1 point to a team that could win a national title this year and everyone acts like the sky is falling.

edited to add: Since U of L joined the Big east they lead the conference in wins.
Come on Tim, you can't tell me the day Pitino came to Louisville however many years ago that you did not EXPECT better results than he has produced. I don't believe Louisville is a clear 2nd in the SEC because Vandy and Florida would have a bit to say about that. Yes Louisville beat Vandy, barely at Home without Vandy's big fella playing.

Be honest, the day Pitino signed with U of L did visions of National Titles dance in your head? Be honest.....
