Louisville football: The honeymoon phase is over, so what’s next?

The honeymoon phase between Louisville football fans and Scott Satterfield is officially over.

Even with an odd season complicated by a worldwide pandemic, the Cardinals and Satterfield faced legitimate expectations entering the season; a sharp contrast from what was seen as a complete rebuild a year ago.

Now, after an opening three-game stretch where Louisville has had legitimate struggles in every facet of the game at some point, the relationship between the coaching staff and Cardinals fans is no longer all sunshine and rainbows.

This is by no means indicative of impatience with the new staff, but instead, an overall recognition that growing pains were inevitable at some point.
