So sad: Louisville Pat Kelsey announced to leave today.

After Charleston fell to Alabama in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament earlier this month, Pat Kelsey’s name quickly became a strong contender for the head coaching job at the University of Louisville.

And Charleston’s top scorer quickly announced that he was moving to Louisville to follow his mentor after Kelsey was hired head coach last Thursday.

Reyne Smith, a senior guard who signed up for the transfer portal last week, made history on Saturday by announcing that he was transferring to the University of Louisville for his final season. Smith became the first commitment of the Kelsey era at Louisville.
