    Of course, he never has signed his extension. If he wanted to stay and stop the rumors, sign the extneion and announce it now. Why hasn't he signed that extension?

    Oh yeah, because he bought a horse farm near Lexington!!!!

    Word from Fayetteville is the A&M AD wasn't returning the Arkansas AD's phone calls when he was seeking permission to speak to Gillispie. So the Arkie AD enlisted former OSU coach Pat Foster and/or current Nebraska coach Doc Sadler to play the middle man between Gillispie and Broyles.

    Please explain why they are looking up at the likes of the Twins, White Sox, Indians, and the Tigers in the AL Central. He is, indirectly, running them into the ground by pocketing $20M for himself and not putting shit back into the team. Gil Meche is not worth all of that jack, and there is nothing that can prove to me that he is deserving of that. That's why KC is a joke.

    I thought A&M's arena was only 10/15 years old. They need a new one?

    A&M AD wouldn't take Broyles' phone calls? That's cute.

    I thought A&M was getting a new practice facility and not a new arena.
    That's what the Chronicle reported.

    So what is plan B or plan C for Arkansas and also Kentucky since A&M's coach was considered for the 'Cats?

    You're right. Practice facility.

    I figured that was laid on thick enough to not need the blue font. Sorry, I'll make it more obvious next time.

    They shouldn't. I covered a basketball game at the old Holler House the last year they played there, 1997-98. So wherever they play now should only be nine years old.

    Have coaches finally figured out that it's better to be a millionaire where you are as opposed to making the glory grab and moving into jobs like Kentucky basketball and Alabama football? Seriously, can anybody look at the shit Tubby's been through the past decade and think it's worth the coin? Anybody who would put their wife and kids in the crosshairs of either group of fans has issues.
