  • Louisville Basketball Mini Series: Pat Kelsey & Team

    Larry O’ is joined by award winning WDRB+WAVE sports journalist Eric Crawford (@ericcrawford), who has covered Louisville sports since 2000! 


    Larry and Eric discuss what may change for the Cardinals this season, and what Pat Kelsey wants to keep: playing fast. Crawford explains why slowing the pace is often a strategy for defense-minded teams looking to limit possessions, but he doesn’t expect that to be Kelsey’s approach. 


    As Kelsey has said, the older he gets, the faster he wants his teams to play.


    They also talk about Louisville’s potential as a shooting team, the importance of getting the ball inside to Flory Bidunga, and Kelsey’s willingness to adjust his approach as the season unfolds. 


    Larry reflects on watching Kelsey adapt over time, including using zone defense and making changes when circumstances call for it.
