#15 looks higher than Brandon Ingram usually does.

Looks like a hostage photo. One player wearing a different jersey. Holy shite!

Looks like the facial expressions we had in 2nd grade on school photo day. Nobody wanted to take pics.

Not only is one guy wearing what looks like a cheap quick jersey they scrapped up in the university bookstore, there is another #1 on the opposite end. C'mon guys, make a little effort.

Don't forget about the one guy in the doo rag!

What the heck are you talking about? Kelsey was 58-12 the last 2 years as back to back champions of the CAAA. I can’t imagine anyone doing better than that.

I’m well aware. I’ve had season tickets for 10 years… I’ll leave it at that.

Who's there in the athletic department that looks at that and thinks it's acceptable to release to the public? They don't even look like they're on the same team, let alone that they want to be there.

That's as rag-tag as I've ever seen a college basketball team look.

Coach and AD should both have their feet on the little yellow footprints.

What a bad look for a first year HC. It looks like someone with a disposable camera was asked to take a team picture right after practice. It clearly looks like 1/2 the people in the photo weren't even ready to take the picture. Plus, the guy with what appears to be a jersey he bought at the bookstore

I know a team picture in the grand scheme of things is not that big of a deal. But if I'm a Louisiville fan I'm wondering if this staff clearly doesn't care enough about easy details in a minor aspect of the program, how much do they care about the little details that matter. It's not hard to take a decent team picture. It's only been happening for decades!

Chucky, blink twice if you want to come back to Wisconsin.

ETA: In actuality, it went down like this... Chucky never wanted to leave Wisconsin. Was very transparent with coaches during the year about schools contacting him and dollar figures being thrown around. At $750K, though, Gard told him he needed to go take that. Wasn't going to get it from Wisconsin.
