We Told You So

Us, Wednesday, October 22nd, on Louisville being ranked high in preseason expert polls.

"I'm not sold on Edgar Sosa, after what feels like five years of waiting for the guy to mature. I'm not sold by Gary's assertion that Earl Clark is a bona fide NBA'er either. He reminds me of Kato out of Iowa State--rangy, aggressive on defense, and occasionally a superstar near the basket. Will he be consistent? Does he really fit Pitino's run and gun? I like this team--just not as much as everyone else, I guess. I'd put them below UConn, for sure."

Rivals.com on Saturday, December 27th had a Roundtable of each writer's most disappointing player so far this year.  Greg Anthony stepped up and said, "Louisville's Edgar Sosa has been an enigma since his freshman year. I thought he would continue to grow and get better, but it's obvious he's struggling with his confidence. His lack of development is as much the problem with the Cardinals' struggles as anything else."  

So, not to brag,  but:  I told you so.  You can't be disappointed if you know not to expect great things from a mediocre player.
