LOUISVILLE APPEAL HOPES TO SAVE NATIONAL TITLE

-

The University of Louisville will appeal two NCAA sanctions, including the loss of revenue from basketball tournament appearance­s that interim President

Greg Postel said Wednesday represents millions of dollars. The board of trustees also unanimousl­y voted to appeal the vacating of victories that could include the 2013 NCAA championsh­ip. Postel said coach Rick Pitino could appeal his NCAA-ordered suspension from five Atlantic Coast Conference games on his own. The NCAA meted out sanctions June 15, citing director of basketball operations Andre

McGee’s “severe and repugnant” conduct in supplying strippers and prostitute­s to recruits and players over four years.
