Louisville basketball fans were absolutely gut-wrenched over the weekend when the Rivals Joe Tipton logged his prediction for 5-star point guard Taylen Kinney. Louisville and college basketball fans saw the highly respected reporter predict Kinney to commit to an Adidas school, but the Kansas Jayhawks, and not the Louisville Cardinals.
Kinney is an Adidas athlete, and many saw the race coming down between Louisville, Kansas, and Kentucky, but the Cardinals took a commanding lead after their visit in June. However, Kinney recently visited Bill Self, and that visit reportedly went so well that not only did the Cardinals lose their lead, but they are no longer the frontrunners.
