Louisville Names Padgett Interim Men's Basketball Coach

(Louisville, KY)  --  The University of Louisville is naming assistant David Padgett as its interim men's basketball coach amid a corruption scandal involving Adidas.  He takes over while head coach Rick Pitino is on unpaid administrative leave amid an FBI investigation into corruption in the program.  Padgett says he's here to try and pick up the pieces.  A criminal complaint released earlier this week by the Justice Department alleges that money was funneled from Adidas to the family of a Louisville recruit.  U-of-L has a 160-million-dollar shoe and apparel contract with Adidas.
