April 6, 200719 yr Wonder what UK will pay Billy G. His athletic director at Texas A&M, Bill Byrne had just given him a pay raise to $2 million per year.....the highest in the Big 12 conference. $2.5M per year?
April 6, 200719 yr I was close. Where's Strike3? He owes me a brawt. Okay, I've seen you saw brawt 5 times, what is a brawt?
April 6, 200719 yr Sounds like he was behind Billy D. which seems right.You really think that? They obviously went after Barnes, which is why he had to announce he wasn't interested? UK got about it's 3rd or 4th choice.

April 6, 200719 yr Okay, I've seen you saw brawt 5 times, what is a brawt? I think they mean a bratwurst dog.
April 6, 200719 yr Anything is better than Tubby, but if its Billy Gillespie, we are taking a huge chance on a still unproven coach. Are you serious? 2 time Big12 coach of the year. No.. he doesn't have the resume Izzo or Donovan have, but who does? 02-03: UTEP : 6-24 03-04: UTEP : 24-8 04-05: Texas A&M : 21-10 05-06: Texas A&M : 22-9 06-07: Texas A&M : 27-7 Thats improvement every year. Texas A&M 2003-04 (pre-Gillispie): 7-21
April 6, 200719 yr Okay, I've seen you saw brawt 5 times, what is a brawt? Bratwurst. You didn't know? I believe Billy G. is a good hire for UK. I hope he does well. For his sake.
April 6, 200719 yr Bratwurst. You didn't know? I believe Billy G. is a good hire for UK. I hope he does well. For his sake. Ahhh, i totally spaced out for a second, the w before the t got me. I LOVE brats!!!! With mustard of course. But on topic, I think this is the best possible alternative for the kitty cats!
April 6, 200719 yr That worked out well the last time.Had that picture saved and ready to go for your avatar?!
April 6, 200719 yr I can live with Gillispie. Few was my personal favorite. But really, either one would have been great. Good Luck Coach G.
April 6, 200719 yr Had that picture saved and ready to go for your avatar?! Yep. Showing my support for the new Cats coach. :thumb:
April 6, 200719 yr Excellent. He was definately my #2 behind Billy D. Go Big Blue! I said in various other threads tha Donovan woud imo be the "best fit" for the job. I also said that Gillisispie was at the very top of my wish list and my choice. GO BIG BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully we will be welcoming BILLY "BLUEGRASS" GILLISPIE to the U.K. basketball tradition and family later today. (p.s. - I wonder how long it will take for a new group of "Billy bashers" to organize and start :sssh: )
April 6, 200719 yr (p.s. - I wonder how long it will take for a new group of "Billy bashers" to organize and start :sssh: ) They're probably meeting now. I say the biggest detractors are gonna be the Pelphrey/Ford supporters. Honestly though, outside of Billy D, Billy G seems to have the fewest people who DON'T want him. I think he'll do just fine.
