Ever since the NCAA denied Louisville’s final appeal nearly two years ago, Cardinal basketball fans have been clamoring for the school to put something inside the KFC Yum Center that could pay homage to U of L’s 2013 national championship without explicitly breaking the rules of the NCAA’s punishment.
The powers that be within the Cardinal athletic program have been listening.
U of L announced Tuesday that a new banner honoring Louisville’s three Final Four Most Outstanding Players will be unveiled during the team’s home game against Michigan on Dec. 3. Those three players — Darrell Griffith (1980), Pervis Ellison (1986) and Luke Hancock (2013) — will be honored during a ceremony at halftime of that game.
