It happens literally every off-season at this point.
- “Power Five” job opens up.
- National media suggests Chris Mack.
- Job goes to different coach while Mack reiterates how happy he and family are at Xavier.
It should come as no surprise that it happened yet again with the suddenly available Louisville job this week. The Cardinals ended up hiring David Padgett, but Mack was suggested for the paper-thin reasoning of “he’s never been in trouble with the NCAA and his wife is from Louisville”.
Eventually, enough has to be enough.
