There is a changing of the guard at Louisville Basketball headquarters as Chris Mack’s time as head coach has come to an abrupt, midseason end. Earlier today, Mack boxed up his office supplies, Planet Fitness coupons, hidden audio recorders, Michael Jackson-themed family photos, and G-shock watch collection, and turned out the lights on his time as Louisville’s head coach.
Mack’s immediate exit became clear when the University of Louisville Board of Trustees and the University of Louisville Athletic Association Board of Directors scheduled a Wednesday afternoon meeting regarding “personnel matters.” Soon after news of the meeting leaked on Tuesday, Mack’s Tuesday night call-in radio show was canceled and, like Mack, the secret was out.
