    According to the Herald Leader and Courier Journal, UK will have a 12:15 p.m. "pep rally" to introduce Billy Gillispie as its new head coach.

    Hmmm. I thought they wanted the guy from A&M, Gillispie?

    Moddy, everyone is going to botch that last name up, no matter how good our intentions are to get it right. But, holy cow, what a move. Todd Wright on SNR during his segment of "Winners and Losers" hit it on the nail by calling A&M losers for not having Gillispie sign that contract, thus letting him look around and having UK nab him during the night.

    Congratulations College Station for screwing this one up and letting him walk.

    Apparently the weather in Lexington is better than it is in College Station...

    Best UK could have done in this situation. Still wish they would have gotten Izzo so I could have seen if my hatred could have grown.

    I like Gillispie OK. We'll see how he does under the microscope.
