Pat Kelsey announce the leaving of his three players

Pat Kelsey officially announces 4 members of first Louisville staff - Card  Chronicle“We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Pat Kelsey as our new men’s basketball coach,” athletic director Josh Heird said. “Pat has proven his ability to build multiple programs to an elite level. He garners great respect as a coach, manager, communicator and motivator who will build strong bonds with his student-athletes, coaches and our fan base. Pat understands the expectations of this storied program and will attack this opportunity with unmatched enthusiasm and work ethic. We’re looking forward to having him, his wife Lisa and their children become part of the best community in college athletics.”

He replaces Kenny Payne, who UofL dismissed back on Mar. 13. Payne’s tenure at Louisville was nothing short of an abject disaster, going 12-52 record in his two years at his alma mater, including 8-24 this past season.

“I am humbled and honored to be named the head coach at the University of Louisville,” Kelsey said. “I would like to thank Josh Heird, President Schatzel, the Board of Trustees and ULAA Board, former UofL players and all of Card Nation for entrusting me to lead one of the great programs in all of college basketball. Coaching giants that I have tremendous respect and reverence for led Cardinal basketball to national prominence during their era. It is my charge to help this great program return to its rightful place as one of college basketball’s best.”
