Louisville basketball recently received crushing news that they are no longer the frontrunner for 5-star point guard Taylen Kinney. The 5-star point guard is not only the nation's No. 1 point guard in the 2026 class, but he is a Newport, Kentucky native and Pat Kelsey's glaring No. 1 target in the guard position.
The Cardinals seeing Joe Tipton log Kansas as his prediction was crushing, but a little bit too soon, as Kelsey has some magic tricks up his sleeves. The Cardinals' head coach was recently interviewed on The Field of 68 podcast, and his viral and bold comment was a pivotal pitch to Kinney on why the Cardinals are clearly the best option for him.
