April 6, 200719 yr Let's face it: Billy Gillespie has coached our Cats for well over five hours now, and what has he done for the program? He hasn't won a single national championship...not even an SEC title! And his recruiting record has been dismal since he took over the program -- not a single blue chipper. Now I know there have been a lot of Billy-bashers on this site over the hours; but I'm not one of them. I just think that the style of play he's brought to UK isn't working for the talent we have on board. Billy Gillespie is a nice guy, and would do well in the right setting. But he hasn't proved that he can win the big games at Rupp and has done nothing to restore the pride of the storied tradition that is UK basketball! And we've been more than patient. We let him finish breakfast...we let him check his email...we even let him use the rest room -- twice! And what has it gotten us? Not a single Final Four appearance. So I pose the question: Is it time for Billy to step down gracefully and let UK move on to a coach that can truly restore the UK dynasty? Love it when a bit writes itself. Props to the 18%ers for the great material.

April 6, 200719 yr Author :laugh: Somebody has too much time on their hands today. Every day. Started composing this one within 15 minutes of hearing the news. It was easy pickin's.
April 6, 200719 yr Yep, this one may have to be put in the hall of fame, BUT this thread could get dusted off come mid December if he starts losing a bunch of games.
April 6, 200719 yr Billy G has won the big game in Rupp. He beat Louisville at Rupp in the NCAA. Already proven himself a Kentucky Coach beating Pitino in Rupp:thumb:
April 6, 200719 yr He's OK. As long as we make the SEC tourny and finish top 50 there will be a lot of folks that think he can do no wrong;)
