Originally posted by The Mad Hatter View PostI said this on an earlier thread about who people wanted to face, Duke or Louisville, when I said I wanted Louisville, in spite of being the better team. I was rooting for Louisville because they have a fanbase that knows basketball and, in spite of moving up into bigger conferences, hasn't developed the same kind of arrogance and entitlement that many successful schools have.
A lot of this stems from UL fans having to put up with UK fans, who want to treat UL the same way KU treats us (although UK's arrogance is KU on steroids). Unlike many BCS fan bases, UL fans tend to care more about the quality of ball being played by a team than the name on their jersey.
Frankly, for all the discussions of becoming like Gonzaga that always come up among non-BCS programs, the school I really want to be like is Louisville. A former Valley school that forced their way into national prominence by winning a national championship, and even when getting the big conference invites, hasn't treated non-BCS schools the same distain that others wrongly aimed in UL's direction in the past.Kansas is Flat. The Earth is Not!!

He seems legit to me. Leave him alone.
Dr. Dunkenstein, Pervis Ellison, Milt Wagner, the McCray brothers, etc. Louisville takes a backseat to no one in tradition. I remember watching Junior Bridgeman and the boys when they came to the roundhouse. Good times.Last edited by shoxlax; April 1, 2013, 09:17 PM.
