Earlier: Louisville's men's basketball program will reportedly announce a self-imposed NCAA Tournament ban at this afternoon's press conference. 

The press conference, set to occur at 1:30 p.m. E.T., will "deliver an important message to the community." 

The self-imposed ban is likely a result of the alleged prostitution scandal.
