This episode of The C.L. Brown Show features Brooks Holton, The Courier Journal's Louisville men's basketball beat writer.

Holton speaks on if the Cardinals should be concerned by their slow first-half starts. He discusses the improvement of the frontcourt, including Sananda Fru closing in on a program record for shooting percentage. And he explains why the Cards will have to play nearly perfect down the stretch to earn a No. 4 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
