The Cardinals will kick off their season this Saturday vs. Austin Peay.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - At this point in time, it's a general consensus that - regardless of how good the Louisville football program is this upcoming 2024 season - the Cardinals are likely going to be a team that is led mainly by their defense. Louisville posted a top-25 defense last season, returned their top two playmakers on that side of the ball , and bolstered it significantly through the transfer portal.
"I just think that had their day with us that day, and that can happen at times," Brohm said. "You got to learn to snap out of it when things happen. I think as we get playing this season, every experience we have where we have some adversity along the way is good for you. We want to go through it as much as we can in practice and in scrimmages, and I think we have.
But if you ask offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Brian Brohm, he believes Shough will be full steam ahead right out of the gates. There is good news on this front, though. For starters, it's not a season-ending injury, and Lacy - barring setbacks - will return to action at some point this season. Additionally, the coaching staff does like the rest of the position and their capabilities.
Even the tight end room is in a much better spot compared to this time last year. Combining the progress of the few returning with the additions that were made via the portal, the Cardinals now have a handful of viable options in the passing game at tight end that will help take the pressure off the of wide receivers to make plays and give Louisville more options in the middle of the field.
While the running back position and their potential does have some questions, Louisville's coaching staff are still very high on them.
