Louisville Basketball: Mack Expects To Have Tournament Team Year One

Louisville basketball had a 2017-18 season that was a rarity in this day and age.

The Cards lost Rick Pitino after 16 years at the helm, and associate head coach David Padgett did an admirable job. The Cards fell just short of the NCAA tournament, and lost in the quarterfinals of the NIT tournament.

Now, in the first year of the Chris Mack era, the 48-year old head coach is confident that the Cards will return to form this season and make the NCAA tournament.

Mack said he “absolutely” believes that the Cards can make the NCAA tournament when he joined College Hoops Today with Jon Rothstein this week.
