The C-J's Steve Jones has a great Q&A with new Cardinal commit Donovan Mitchell.
When did you come to the conclusion that you would commit to Louisville? Did you expect to do that this week?
To be honest with you, I knew I was going to Louisville - to myself, I didn't tell anyone - for about a week and a half or two weeks. Then I had a dream was playing in front of 22,000 (at the KFC Yum! Center), and that's when I told my parents that I want to commit to Louisville. But we had agreed that we were going to pray on it as a family and go and see the school. And for being here for not even a full day, I told them it was the right place for me.
What did you see that impressed you?
I saw the entire school, but just realizing how close of a group these guys are. You already see the incoming freshmen are treated like they've been here two years. The whole aspect of a family is great. Coach (Rick Pitino) is great. The gym is just on a whole different level. The dorms, the academics, everything are great. I'll get more in depth as far as the academics are concerned tomorrow. Seeing everything I just felt it was the right place for me.
Did you get to see a practice or a workout?
I saw them practice, and I could see myself being out there on the court doing those same drills. Everything pretty much I could envision myself being there. Every time I could see it. There were no hiccups, no worries. I just felt like that was the right place. I feel like he's a great coach because he gets after the guys when they do something wrong, and it's only to make them better. There's clear evidence of what he's done.
What was Coach Pitino's reaction's when you told him today?
His words were, 'I've never been this happy in my life.' It was a great feeling to have that for me. That was his reaction.
Love this class.
