Interesting nugget of info

It doesn't look good, Billy.

In tonight's recap of the game, the LHL mentions in an article...

UK President Lee Todd attended the game. He declined to comment on
Gillispie's job status, but he did say he spoke with the coach about the
future of the program late last week.

This is in direct contrast to what Billy was saying earlier this week, after rumors were flying that such a meeting took place. I can't find the direct quote, but Billy said that he and the UK admin. have meetings all the time to discuss recruiting, etc. Billy went on to say that his future at UK was not discussed.

Hmm, so Billy says they didn't talk about it, Todd says they did. Sounds like Billy isn't wanting to let the bad-news-cat out of the bag.
Additionally, Matt Jones at KSR is hearing that an announcement will be made Friday regarding UK's decision. I would imagine if Billy is keeping his job they would come out immediately and show their support. Why delay? Scheduling an announcement for Friday sounds like something more official.
Stay tuned.

  2. I'm getting whispers of John Calipari...Can I root for that guy???I would hope so.AS long as[1] His offense consists of more than a pass to the post/if that's not there hand it off to Jodie/if that's not there jack up a 20 footer(Stevenson.)
    [2] His Defense Has more than one wrinkle(straight man to man) even though our perimeter defenders get blown bye regularly.And provided he (Calipari)can instruct our current players on such matters as; passing,catching,dribbling,running while passing,running while catching,running while dribbling.All of which seem lost on the current team.
