Colavecchia on Grant: "Jelani without question was a valuable piece of the puzzle that was missing. His freshman year he played in every contest. He has learned some valuable lessons off the field and will return as a key player for us this fall. He is a quick technical player who has a great left foot. He has grown physically and mentally, I look forward to seeing him back in a Louisville uniform."
