Louisville is zeroing in on Kenny Payne to be the school’s next men’s basketball coach, this according to a report from Sports Illustrated’s Pat Forde.
There is nothing definite yet, with discussions ongoing and no job offered or accepted, sources said. But if talks proceed well over the next 24 hours, Payne could be introduced as the new coach of the Cardinals as soon as Thursday.
A later report from WDRB’s Rick Bozich stated that Payne and U of L athletic director Josh Heird have still not had a formal conversation, but sources tell Card Chronicle that this should change in the very near future.
