Vince Tyra is doing a monster job as the Louisville Cardinals athletic director.
After reeling in the biggest fish of the 2018 college basketball offseason in Chris Mack, Tyra may have done the same by hiring new football head coach Scott Satterfield in December.
By now, most know Satterfield’s credentials. He took an Appalachian State team to four straight 10-win seasons and only suffered four conference losses, and he was one of the more intruguing names surfacing over the last few coaching cycles.
Initially, Louisville saw some backlash. It seemed like all but a done deal that Louisville’s native son and no-brainer choice as the incumbent head coach for the Cards, Jeff Brohm, would return to save the day for his hometown team.
