LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The University of Louisville men’s basketball team has missed the NCAA tournament – for now.
They were on the bubble as a possible 11th seed in the tournament.
The Cardinals are listed as one of the first four teams out – meaning they are a “standby” team and the first standby team.
A standby team can only be introduced into the tournament 48 hours after the announcement of the field of 68.
The final deadline is Tuesday at 6 p.m.
The Cards will have to wait and see if anyone must withdraw due to COVID-19 issues over the next two days.
If they do not replace anyone, the Cardinals can potentially be a No. 1 seed in the NIT.
