Have you read any rumors lately about how soon that Billy Clyde Gillispie fella up in Lexington is going to be looking for a new job? That it’s a done deal, write it down, he’s gone? That your cousin’s sister whose best friend cleans his pool has confirmed there is no doubt that Billy’s already taken the job at SageBrush State San Antonio?

Have ya, huh, huh, have ya?

Unless you’re deaf, dumb and blind, you have.

So when a reliable source with some UK connections emailed me this morning to say that the UK coach is a sure goner because that’s the only way Mitch Barnhart is going to avoid a mass exodus of players, I ignored it.

Then the source wrote me again.

And then he wrote me again.

And then he just wrote me for a fourth time and wondered why I hadn’t advised you my loyal readers of this absolute, 100%, you can take it to the bank certainty?

So, because this fellow has been spot on in the past, and due to his incessant insistence, and since I haven’t posted anything in a few hours and am bored because tonight’s first tilt doesn’t tip off for an hour, I have now passed the news on to you.

To reiterate in my source’s exact words and punctuation (I can’t believe I’m actually passing this along.): “Going, going gone…only way, I’m told to prevent mass exodus….expect announcement soon”

If it happens, remember where you heard it for the 3,652d time.
