In an interview with Steve Jones from the Kentucky Rivals.com site Cats Illustrated (the article is premium content but the quote is provided below with permission), Wales said his main question for the Louisville coaches concerned which conference the Cardinals would call home.

"My main question for them was, what conference are they going to be in?" he said. "And also if (Charlie) Strong and them would take a (job with a) bigger team in the next four years, whether I will be able to count on them to be there the next four years. I felt they have always kept it real with me and looked me in my eyes and told me the truth.

What was Carter's response for which league he thought the Cardinals would land in? "He said they would be in the Big 12, no doubt," Wales said.
