Louisville's defense has been 'terrible' – and it won't get easier at UNC

Posted Jan 11, 2019
Chris Mack arrived at Louisville with a vision of how he wanted his new program to defend opponents. Through 15 games, he hasn't seen it yet. "I don't think there's been a point where we felt that our defense is good enough to win against elite teams," Mack said Friday. "We need to do a better job of containing the basketball and keeping it in front of us." (Louisville Courier-Journal)
