It's a done deal but you can't say it's a fact?

I'm sorry, I just don't believe it anymore. I don't see that guy going anywhere.

i posted this earlier and it got labeled a rumor i was just wondering who of you agree with that label and whichof you is bold enough to stick your neck out there andsupport my post.


Coldstream: It is a RUMOR as your story is not backed up by anyone else but yourself. I've removed your 2nd thread because re-hashes what is already discussed here.

Big Blue is right. Within 48 hours BD will announce the good news. It is strange how the national media can get the nation to second guess ourselves.

Who is Billy Donovan? Maybe it's because I don't hear his name much these days.

Doesn't seem to ring a bell though...

Get over yourself, friend. It's not "sticking your neck out" or "boldness" to post rumors on a message board under an assumed name that have a 50/50 shot of being true.

I agree ... I posted all ready to thank Pitino for help with BD.



The holding pattern remains in place. It's the world's worst-kept secret that Billy Donovan is the No. 1 candidate for UK. CatsPause.com has received information leading us to believe that a tidy deal is already in place, and that was echoed on Friday by a report from ESPN's Mark Schlabach. Slowly but surely, the national media is beginning to backpedal a bit on previous doubts and more voices are recognizing Donovan's chances of being the next leader of the Big Blue Nation.

Fans searching for good omens will want to note rival Rick Pitino suddenly saying very nice things about the Kentucky position and Donovan's own refusal to deny interest in the job despite several opportunities with the huge media buzz around the Final Four.

Just you. He didn't look or act any different to me? He had a big smile and he was joking with the media.....sounds like a man pretty comfortable if you asked me....

BUT, that being said, I do not have a degree in Behavior Science or Psychology, so I am not trained to read people's emotions, especially people on TV......

I'm just wondering when the press conference today is as it is getting late. I haven't left my living room, have been on the internet and watching television all day for the breaking news. Can you please give me my day back?

find yourself a new friend in high places because seeing that's it's going on 6:00 in Lexington, I don't think the press conference is happening. Unless of course, someone's realtor's brother's friend's lawyer's cousin's dad's in charge of organizing the press conference and he's really surprising everybody by having it at midnight. These "sources" and "friends" posts crack me up.

Yea, we will always remember we heard it first from you and that reliable source. Now go ask that one friend of yours when Patterson is going to commit.

Get a life.

Well, it's 7:58 on Wednesday morning and there's been no announcement and none scheduled.

I guess that clears this up, doesn't it? :rolleyes:

He/she meant Tues., 4/10 :P Wouldn't that be nice. We could wear our "new" Billy D T-shirts to the Batcats game here in Lsvl. :> BTW, our favorite UL poster rickdacatkillar says he thinks it is dollar beer and hotdog day for that game. Wazooo. My UL spouse will be there:beer:

Not only was the deal done before Tubby left, BUT Donovan actually coached the Cats for the last month of the season and in the NCAA tourney via a hidden camera and two-way radio. Tubby was okay with this arrangement, as he knew that he was headed to Minnesota. Tubby would receive orders from Donovan over the radio and then relate Donovan's words to the players (with the exception of Woo, who would only take his commands from Tubby, out of loyalty to his old coach).

If you watch the Kansas game closely, you can see where Donovan and Hobbs got into a fight with Tubby relaying Donovan's words to Hobbs. It was comical to see Tubby role his eyes while trying to convey the message.

So, while Billy D won the NCAA championship, he also was beaten in the second round.

Tubby has asked that those games be taken off of his official record.
