The former Humana executive, a member of the University of Louisville’s class of 1976, notified the school’s office of advancement last month that he was pulling his multimillion-dollar pledges because of “extreme dissatisfaction with current leadership.”

Little known fact to the ACC community. The current leadership is the former leadership. Postel been an interim for 2YEARS. Pappa has been around since like the 1980's. Vince is a "good guy" and had a beer and audited the University and had another beer and agreed to help out. Only very new leadership is Grissom (former investor in professional sports and navigated a small Private college that sucks on the UK utter for relevance ) and Bevin (not from Louisville and seeking higher office).

You're going to have to explain that one to me. I assume you're talking about Centre, but as someone who is very knowledgable about the school I have no idea what you're talking about.

My frustration got the best of me. Centre is an outstanding place. It’s reputation speaks for itself. An awkward reference on my part trying to illustrate the “pedestal” smaller colleges put UK on regarding basketball. It was a failed attempt on my part. I apologize. As I watched our game against Youngstown yesterday I found joy in sports again. I have decided to enjoy sports again. I am going to try and ignore the corruption.

Sorry again!

It's such a perfect scene. Houses surrounding the ball field. There is a difference and a sameness in the yards around the baseball field and those around golf courses. You live on a Private course you might do business with the guy who hit a shank. That dude probably just lets that ball lie.
You go to a baseball game and a ball over the fence is a prize. A prize more often than not given to a kid. The crazy excitement of that kid showing his parent what he got. It's almost like he felt part of the game. That ball was a game ball.

I am sorry CollegeCard again for my frustration! I'm done with the current administration. I'm gonna ignore them realizing what they are.
