Louisville men's basketball opens its exhibition season Oct. 30 against Lenoir-Rhyne. The Cardinals' regular season opener is Nov. 9 against Bellarmine. Both games will also take place at the KFC Yum! Center.

U of L went 13-19 last season and begins a new era this season under coach Kenny Payne, a member of the school's 1986 NCAA title team and a former longtime assistant at Kentucky. Homecoming weekend will be the first public glimpse at Payne's first team, but the coach has been in the practice gym with his new players.

"I think they're learning a lot," Payne said last week. "I think they're getting better. But it's hard. The bar is raised very high. Just about unattainable. But that's the way you get better."
