By Dalton Ray —

Men’s basketball acting head coach David Padgett and the University of Louisville are parting ways. Interim athletic director Vince Tyra informed Padgett that the school will be going to another direction for a permanent head coach.

Padgett will pursue other coaching opportunities in the coming season.

Padgett served as the acting head coach this season after previous coach Rick Pitino was fired in October, two weeks before the start of the official practice.
