Chris Mack Suspended Six Games Without Pay by Louisville

You will not be seeing Chris Mack anytime soon. The Louisville head men’s basketball coach has been suspended without pay for the first six games of the 2021-22 season.

The University of Louisville is suspending Mack as a result of the Dino Gaudio extortion case. After an internal investigation, UofL found that while Mack was a victim of an extortion attempt, Mack failed to follow University guidelines, policies and procedures in handling the matter.

Mack will miss six non-conference games from Nov. 7-Nov. 28, including a trip to the Bahamas where the Cards will take on Mississippi State, and either Richmond or Maryland.
