I predicted last winter that the Billy Gillispie story would end badly - but - maybe I was wrong. Having your mugshot for a DUI all over the papers and sports channels is not good but at least he's smart enough to recognize he has a problem and he's taking steps to overcome it. Best of luck to BCG with his personal life but I hope he loses his legal battle against the University of KY. This certainly won't help his case.
HOUSTON - Former Kentucky basketball coach Billy Gillispie voluntarily checked himself into the John Lucas Athletes After Care Program last week in Houston for alcohol-related counseling. In an interview with FOX 26 Sports in Houston, Gillispie admitted it was time for him to get help and he is doing just that. STORY
Kentucky Bourbon is some rough stuff. Maybe Pitino could share a seat on the way....
ReplyDeleteHe really blew that whole opportunity. That job was perfect for him, if he had only shown a little humility once in a while. I hope he gets the help he needs.
ReplyDeleteThey achieve such heights, then fall so far. It is sad, but God has a way of putting things into perspective.
