The momentum behind the idea of Kenny Payne becoming the next Louisville Cardinals men's basketball head coach only seems to be growing.
Payne's current boss, New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau, endorsed the idea of the second-year Knicks assistant becoming head man at Payne's college alma mater.
"He's interested and I think he'd be a great fit," Thibodeau told the media in New York. "(Payne is) strong on both sides of the ball, he's strong with individual development. And he's been around. He brings a lot of experience to any situation he goes to."
