March 26, 200719 yr They are interviewing Donovan on PTI today. They will ask him about the Kentucky job. Tune in. It will be on in a few minutes.
March 26, 200719 yr Everyone keep this in mind while watching any Rick Pitino/Billy Donovan interview. I find it strange that many people do not remember that just ten years ago, Rick Pitino could not ever tell the truth. He still can't. I have been made aware that Rick Pitino will be UK's next coach. It all makes sense when you really think about it. Ricky P. is Billy the Kid's mentor......Billy would not make a major decision like this without consulting with Rick. Billy would not take the UK job because Rick wants the UK job. Rick is now helping Billy get Florida and Jeremy Foley to ante up......all the while lying through his teeth.......again! Pitino is not thrilled about living in Lexington, but he will be UK's next basketball coach. I have been told that one Rex Chapman is in the mix as well. He wants to be a head coach and learn it through Pitino kind of like Reggie Theus did. The timing for the announcement (the real word, not Rick's word) I have told will be late this week. I would speculate it will be early next week after the Final Four, but that is just me trying to think of the best time for all parties involved to get the money right. If Florida wins it again, it might cost the Gator athletic department up to four million a year for Billy Donovan.

March 26, 200719 yr Right Now, He's thinking about UCLA.... The two bolded words were used excessively IMO.....
March 26, 200719 yr Of course he's going to dance around the question. He doesn't want the media to create a circus right before possibly two of the biggest games of his career. IMO billy D stays put though if the money's right.

Once again, Pitino is not going to bail on what figures to be a top-five team next year. That's just asinine.
March 26, 200719 yr UK's basketball program and boosters could easily beat any monetary offer Florida would make if they want Billy...
March 26, 200719 yr UK's basketball program and boosters could easily beat any monetary offer Florida would make if they want Billy... Boosters maybe so, but the athletic department couldn't compete straight up against Florida.....Football is the money-maker, and when it comes to football there is no one that can compete with Florida on a money level....
