ATM better pay Gillispie the bucks or they will have a losing basketball program in addition to football.


Rumor has it, he's got a little Eddie Sutton in him.

Seems the Aggies this year were led by juniors and seniors, he didnt recruit them correct? I think he's a really good coach and would flourish at UK and he'd be able to recruit just fine, but I dont know if AD and Boosters agree.

AC Law got himself into the NBA because of Gillispie having faith in him and making him work his butt off. Law was at best average. Billy likes recruiting in Texas though. That may be the thing that keeps him in Texas. He sees untapped talent. Recruiting wars may not be one of his desires. And wars must be fought at Kentucky. Good to hear the Wildcat boosters and AD dont like him, because even though I am not an Aggie fan, I appreciate good solid basketball by good coaches. So I get to see a lot of ATM games.
