myhousekey Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/4668232.html Texas A&M basketball coach Billy Gillispie will remain head coach of the basketball program he has turned into a national power, three high-ranking officials close to and within the A&M system have confirmed. Gillispie apparently will receive a new contract that will pay him in the neighborhood of $2 million a year, guarantees added to the deal that runs through 2012 and construction on the new A&M basketball facility will begin on Monday. The announcement should become official after the A&M regents meet Thursday and Friday. Thank goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Oven Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Razorback fans are crying, as well as realizing what a senile, incontinent Megan Fox Frank Broyles is. Of course, I guess it's not official until Billy Clyde speaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myhousekey Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 (edited) I'd say Aggie fans are officially worried with Donovan turning down the KY job and Gillispie still yet to sign on the dotted line (at least all I've read is of a verbal agreement).

myhousekey Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 Aggie fears are a reality This is definitely not "good" Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcat2334 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Uh oh - great move for Gillespie- horrible for A & M . Damn, that sucks for y'all. No reason A&M shouldn't be able to get a top notch coach down there. Program is on the way up, and they have the $$$ to lure a good one.

No reason A&M shouldn't be able to get a top notch coach down there. Program is on the way up, and they have the $$$ to lure a good one. The problem is there are no good ones available. Everyone has been hired already. And Arkansas is STILL looking for a coach. Unreal offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclones Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Arkansas hired a coach. I want to say Creighton's coach but not positive. Who, Altman? Nah, he accepted, attended the press conference, then backed out the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Oven Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 The problem is there are no good ones available. Everyone has been hired already. And Arkansas is STILL looking for a coach. Unreal offseason. Apparently we hired John Pelphery today. I remember him as a player at Kentucky and it sounds like he has done a good job at South Alabama. Also, apparently he's also Donovan protege. I am very, very cautiously hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
