Cards’ Practice
One of my sources was allowed to sit in on the Cards practice this week before they left for Dayton. The practice was intense and basically the only time they stopped during the 2 hour session was when Pitino pointed out defensive mistakes. Top players were Knowles (on fire), Twill (of course), Swopshire (going to be solid player in the future), McGee (defensive maniac). After practice Pitino sat down with the small group of spectators and filled out his bracket with them. He made some interesting picks and had Louisville and Pittsburgh in the championship game, but didn’t fill in the champion…
-tourney note: On the way up to Dayton the team stopped in at Rafferty’s in Florence, KY. Around 30 Cards fans who got a tip about the stop were dispersed throughout the restaurant. Cards players signed autographs and posed for pictures with fans.
