Which former Louisville basketball player would you like to see return as an assistant?

There's an assistant coaching vacancy on the Louisville basketball staff, and rumors are already swirling with names that may wind up filling that void.

Unless David Padgett winds up receiving a promotion, the name those rumors wind up settling on is unlikely to be a former Cardinal hooper. But let's not let that stop us.

If you could have one former Louisville basketball player to join Rick Pitino's staff, justified in any manner you like, who are you taking?

Here are my power rankings:

1. Earl Clark

PROS

--Comedic value

--Name recognition

--Networking potential through golf

CONS

--Inability to recruit Arizona

--Still playing in the NBA

2.
