    On January 10, 2014, Rick Pitino and Kevin Ware jointly announced that Ware would sit out the remainder of the season and take a medical redshirt. In Louisville's December 17 win over Missouri State, Ware was kicked in the same right leg he had severely fractured during the Cardinals' 2013 NCAA Tournament win over Duke. Under NCAA rules, a player qualifies for a medical redshirt if he appears in fewer than 30 percent of his team's games, with no appearances in the second half of the season. Ware played in nine out of a total of 31 scheduled games; the Missouri State game was Louisville's 11th of the season.[7] Shortly after the Cardinals' exit from the NCAA tournament, Ware announced that he would transfer from Louisville.[8] On April 12, Ware confirmed to ESPN.com that his destination would be Georgia State, near his family's current Atlanta-area home.[9]

    Regular season

    Out of conference

    Louisville opened with two exhibition victories and 2 wins at home. They played in the Hall of Fame Classic, advancing to the finals where they fell to #24 North Carolina 93-84. They finished out their non-conference slate with 5 victories, including a 79-63 win over Western Kentucky in the Billy Minardi Classic, and a loss at Rupp Arena to archrival #18 Kentucky. They entered American Athletic Conference play with an 11–2 record.

    American Athletic

    The Cardinals opened American Athletic play with road victories over UCF and Rutgers before returning home and losing to #24 Memphis. They then went 11-1 in their next 12 games, splitting a home and home with Cincinnati. They lost their second game with Memphis before closing out the season with back to back victories over #18 SMU and #19 UConn on senior day. They finished the regular season with a 26–5 (15–3) record and finished in a tie with Cincinnati as American Athletic Regular Season Champions.

    Russ Smith was named to the Sporting News, Sport Illustrated and NBC Sports All-American First Teams.[11][12][13] Russ Smith and Montrezl Harrell were named to the American Athletic Conference All-Conference First Team, and Terry Rozier was named to the American Athletic Conference All-Rookie Team.[14]

    Post-season

    American Athletic Tournament

    By virtue of losing a coin flip the Cardinals were the #2 seed in the tournament and faced Rutgers in the quarterfinal round.[15] They set an AAC record for margin of victory with a 61-point defeat of the Scarlet Knights, 92-31.[16] They defeated Houston in the semi-finals 94-65. Russ Smith set an AAC scoring record and Louisville tournament scoring record with 42 points against the Cougars.[17] The Cardinals won the AAC Tournament Championship game against #21 UConn by the score of 71-61. This was the Cardinals first AAC Tournament Championship, in their only year in the conference. Russ Smith won the AAC Tournament Most Outstanding player award. Smith, Montrezl Harrell and Luke Hancock were named to the AAC All-tournament First Team.[18]

    The Cardinals have won three consecutive conference tournament championships (two in the Big East and one in the AAC).

    NCAA Tournament

    The Cardinals earned a #4 seed in the Midwest region and defeated Manhattan in the second round by a score of 71-64. They defeated #5 seed St. Louis in the third round; their reign as defending champs ended as the Cardinals have been dethroned by #8 Kentucky, 74-69, in the Sweet 16, finishing 31-6.
