It's Gillispie for UK

Love in his news conference, when asked if he or his "representatives" were contacted prior to yestersday:
"I don't have any representatives. I'm a country boy... There were conversations between a mutual friend."
If I was in that news conference, I only wish I had the stones to ask who it was.

 

Frank Broyles ... pwned again by the Big Blue.

The Georgia Con Man cannot vacate his Fayetteville premises fast enough. By the way, enjoy MIKE NEWELL as your head coach, fucker!

 

Maybe so, but if he doesn't produce magic in Lexington, he won't see his first class graduate after playing at Rupp, either.

 

I wonder how many Kentucky fathers will now name their newborn sons Billy Clyde?

 

Yeah, but what does that have to do with Billy Gillispie?

 

I wonder if a Colette Connell look-alike will greet him on the tarmac of the airport...

Bama still wins... this didn't drag out nearly as long...

 

Four Roses. Better than them all.

 

Thanks for taking the job, Billy.

Now, about that NCAA tournament thing … yeah, we’re gonna have to go ahead and ask you to win that thing next year.

 

So, do old-time Kentuckians feel they now got their payback for Bear Bryant?

 

Why would you hire DIzzy Gillespie? Fuck's been dead for 15 years. And UK screwed themselves with Bear Bryant. Rupp got special reatment that Bahr didnt and it pissed him off.

 

C-J posts story about Gillispie's prior arrests (click here), and already UK fans go crazy, ripping the C-J for negative journalism.

One UK fan goes so far to say that the story of his law-breaking past "has nothing to do with this man as a coach." :

 

I'm pretty sure he already got that memo.

I was at the PC today, and afterwards while Barnhart was talking to some reporters, one of the TV guys from Louisville said "we" talking about the program.
