Louisville is confirming that HOF Coach Denny Crum has passed. His 1986 team famously beat our Blue Devils for the NCAA Championship.
RIP Coach Crum. I first remember seeing Denny Crum on the sidelines as an assistant coach for John Wooden at UCLA. He has been a fixture for a lot of years.

Honestly, outside of the obvious, I didn't ever hear much bad about Crum. Certainly a gem of a previous era.
Really feels like the Golden Age of Coaches is starting to slip away.
Rest In Peace to a Legend.
He left UCLA as John Wooden's top assistant during their glory days to build a powerful program at Louisville.
He personally came to Coach K's last game at Louisville to congratulate him.
Another Coaching Giant has left us...
RIP Coach.
Prayers for the family.
RIP coach. Was in the building in 1986.
