UK assistant Kenny Payne addresses reports tying him to Louisville job Jon Hale/Courier Journal
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky assistant Kenny Payne has never been a college basketball head coach and, yeah, certainly his success is due in part to working for Hall of Famer John Calipari at a resource-rich traditional powerhouse.
So you're right, outspoken Louisville fans on Twitter: Payne should not be the Cardinals' basketball coach next season or anytime soon.
That's because Payne is better than the Louisville program currently is and probably will be for the next half-decade.
