Sued and Screwed

What a week it has been for University of Kentucky's Athletic Director Mitch Barnhardt. In the same week reports of the University being Sued by their former coach, and reports that their new coach is under heavy investigation by the NCAA have all surfaced.

On the brink of having the Number 1 recruiting class in the nation the wildcats still can't seem to get rid of the dark cloud hovering around its basketball program, with Billy Clyde still showing his face around town all the while preparing to drop the six million dollar hammer on the University for payment he feels he is still owed.

But the scrutiny doesn't stop there, UK's new Savior has been brought to the forefront of a NCAA investigation of Memphis University's basketball program, where there has been reports of tampering with a SAT score of a former Memphis player who many are saying may be NBA Rookie of the year Derrick Rose.

I guess by now coach Cal. is getting pretty used to having his victories contested, with the 'disappearance' of his UMass final four, and now with the risk of losing his Memphis championship run, all that is left is for the floor to fall in on the CALIPARTY, before the music even starts to play.

BYE BYE BILLY CLYDE

The University of Kentucky has released a statement that Billy Gillispie is out as coach of the Wildcats after two seasons. A highly speculated move finally has come to fruition and the whirlwind of rumors of who is to be the next coach of Kentucky will swirl at a feverish pace. There is a press conference to take place at 4:30 PM today to formally announce the decision.

Fair Warning....

Again, YDF has been notified by a number of credible sources in and around the University of Kentucky athletic department that Billy Gillispie will be fired before the end of the week. That being the case, Kentucky has to have someone with superior credentials of Billy Clyde's on board to make this tough decision. That being said, there are about 3 coaches that come to mind: Billy Donovan, Jay Wright, or John Calipari. Of course, if Memphis and Villanova make it to the Final Four that will make it more difficult for Kentucky to have serious contact with them. But from the roars we're hearing in Lexington, Cats fans would love any of the three on the sidelines next season. We're told to be expecting the news to hit papers around friday morning.
