When Louisville begins its season on November 5, they are most likely going to be doing so without one of their three captains, Malik Williams. Malik is recovering from surgery to repair a broken fifth metatarsal in his right foot. The injury happened on September 20 and the recovery timeframe given was 6-8 weeks.
Last week at ACC Media Day, Chris Mack said that Williams is still on that timetable and that he likely will not be ready for the season opener.
