By Kyeland Jackson —
Like now-former head men’s basketball coach Rick Pitino, U of L Athletic Director Tom Jurich is fired.
The University of Louisville’s board of trustees voted 10-3 to fire Jurich after hours in closed session. Interim President Greg Postel thanked those who sent letters to keep Jurich and thanked Jurich for his service.
“We want to thank Tom for his many years of service and contributions to the University of Louisville,” Postel said. “To our students, faculty, staff and fans, this is our opportunity to demonstrate the unity and integrity that define being a Louisville cardinal.
