LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) – The University of Louisville will make another attempt to have the NCAA restore the vacated 2013 men’s national champion to the school.
“We know how much that special season and national title still mean to our former players, our fans and the Louisville community,” said John Heird, UofL Director of Athletics. “With the significant changes in intercollegiate athletics, new guidelines and principles regarding sanctions, and recent rulings in NCAA enforcement cases, now is the appropriate time to revisit Louisville’s sanctions with the NCAA, including the prohibition on displaying a championship banner. We look forward to engaging with current NCAA leadership in hopes of seeing a fair and meaningful resolution.”
The decision to strip the 2013 title was made in June
