When it comes to Louisville basketball in March, it’s all about winning. As I’ve grown up a Cardinal fan, I’ve been fortunate to watch the program I love continue their ascend into the top tier of college basketball programs – and it happens with runs in March.
I got to watch players like Francisco Garcia, Taquan Dean, Kyle Kuric, Peyton Siva, Russ Smith, Terry Rozier, Montrezl Harrell go from being excellent college basketball players to bigger than life stars in the city of Louisville thanks to their play in March. Since 2005 the Cards have made two appearances in the Elite 8, three to the Final Four, while winning the National Championship in 2013 with arguably the greatest team in program history.
