Wednesday afternoon Cardinal news and notes

Alison and Milie may have graduated from the UK College of Medicine, but they still made sure that Lexington knows where their loyalties are.

By Mike Rutherford

I_medium The postseason starts tonight for Louisville baseball. Here's your preview of the Cards' 7 p.m. ACC Tournament opener against Wake Forest, which you can watch locally on Fox Sports South or listen to on 93.9 The Ville.

I_medium Truth

I_medium The Louisville women will host Maryland in the ACC-Big 10 Challenge on Dec. 1, renewing the Jeff Walz/Brenda Frese rivalry.

I_medium Louisville sophomore shortstop Devin Hairston has earned and accepted an invitation to compete for a roster spot on the 2016 USA Baseball Collegiate National Team. He'll team up with Brendan McKay on that squad.

I_medium Speaking of Hairston, his walk-off against Kentucky kicks off the top five plays of the 2016 ACC baseball season.

I_medium Charles Baldwin, the No. 3 JuCo player in the country and a former 5-star OL recruit, is on U of L's campus today.

I_medium Probably the best thing to come out of the playoffs this year:

I_medium New U of L football signee Linwood Foy has his eyes set on a national championship.

I_medium One of the top tight end recruits in the country is headed to Louisville next month.

I_medium U of L's Christopher Morin-Kougoucheff advanced to the singles semifinals of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) National Men's Open Clay Court Championships last week.

I_medium Athlon ranks Jeff Brohm as the No. 1 coach in Conference USA.

I_medium Visor Teddy?

Visor Teddy.

I_medium Local NBA Draft decisions of note from today so far:

Isaiah Briscoe - Coming back to Kentucky
Marcus Lee - Coming back to college, but transferring
Troy Williams (Indiana) - Staying in the draft
James Blackmon Jr. - Coming back to Indiana
Isaiah Whitehead (Seton Hall) - Staying in the draft

I_medium David Levitch isn't having any of Chinanu's plays for attention.

I_medium Fifty-one years ago today, Muhammad Ali knocked out Sonny Liston.

I_medium I will enjoy this.

I_medium Dan McDonnell and the Louisville baseball team are taking the lessons they've learned from past postseasons with them into this one.

I_medium The Reds are DePaulful, but former Card Adam Duvall just keeps hitting bombs.

I_medium TaDarrius Patterson's high school coach breaks down the newest U of L commit.

I_medium This is the best thing to happen on the internet in 2016, and it's not really close.

Kimmy Schmidt/Kenneth Parcell is running Pastner's social media.

I_medium The folks over at Hammer & Rails respond to the news that Purdue will be facing Louisville at the end of November.

I_medium And finally R&R will be (hopefully) talking about a Chinanu announcement at some point between 3 and 6. If not, the show will just be three hours of me refreshing social media and saying "nothing yet" over and over. Should be great.
