In our latest episode of Coaching College Basketball is Hard, we present the case of Chris Mack.He is one America’s best basketball coaches. At Xavier, he won two regular season titles in the Atlantic 10 and one after the school moved to the Big East.Mack took Xavier to the NCAA Tournament eight times in nine years. He probably never should have left that job, but Louisville came calling and he took the big money to go down the road from Cincinnati.He went 20-14 in his first season with the Cardinals and reached the Big Dance. He would have returned there in 2019-20 with a 24-7 team, but COVID-19 intervened.The pandemic messed up last season, too, as Louisville finished 13-7 and missed the tournament.That COVID-impact season produced all sorts of upheaval, including discord over handling the pandemic and the firing of his assistant coaches. One of them, Dino Gaudio, tried to extort extra severance pay by threatening to disclose minor NCAA rules violations.
