Billy Clyde Gillispie tells Jeanine Edwards she asked a dumb question.

[pokeryfoosy]

dumb question? he clearly said bad question.

[nmcvicker03]

he should have said "listen here sweet baby, thats a bad question"

[tytucker06]

He worked miracles at A&M and UK fans need to get off his back until you talk to the guy in person, I have. He is a bad person but as a coach he expects a high work ethic. Also Calipari is more of a thug than Billy because he got with bad recruiting violations twice. He should never be allowed to coach in the NCAA again.

[funyonz]

@tytucker06 Wait Cal's a thug? Billy G put someone in a bathroom and made him sit there but Cal is a thug?

[tytucker06]

@funyonz Well i'm not too familiar with what happened at UK but nothing like that happened... that we know of. And Cal I believe should not be able to coach in NCAA again I believe in 2nd chances, just as BG is getting at tech for his drinking over last 5 years, but cal had 2 seperate sets of recruiting violations... I don't believe in third chances.

[ukhistorian]

@tytucker06 So treating a player like crap is worse? I'm all for a tough coach but that is abusive. Also the NCAA cleared Cal in those Final Fours.

[mynyon666]

My IQ has dropped watching a conversation by quite possibly the two dumbest people in the sports world.

[Zombies2613]

worst kentucky coach of all time.

[gri22ly100]

im SO glad we have john calipari this time around. I cant beleive we only lost 2 games last year (Kentucky rulez) =p

[kkm5758]

What a douche.

[WhYtEtYsOn]

Billy G is an idiot. Glad he's gone.

[myfireburns22]

I'm glad kentucky fired him and got calapari billyy gillispie is rude and a bad coach he doesnt seem like much of a good coach at all but calpari is awsome he's gottenthe cats off to their best start in like 30years and 13-0 GO CATS

[ming746]

this is why that idiot  was fired.

[seemeinHD]

pitinooooooo!!!!!!!

[1958sharp]

Alcohol abuse will cause brain damage which affects personality and reason. Also, he has a reputation with being consumed by his job. Everyone needs more than one interest in their life and Billy G. is far from well-rounded. Probably a good guy at heart, just not a stable person.

[liveinky2]

Have you been drinking tonight sir?

"That's really a bad question" he said to the officer who pulled him over.

[nWo24life]

@liveinky2 That's priceless, man! Best comment on here by far.

[peeblesgolf1]

Calipari is a much better coach

[CristinaLvnMindfreak]

@peeblesgolf1 Agreed! The program is 10000X better since Cal has taken over.

[kenikagw]

im glad hes gone

[volfano7]

I agree with Buckmizer.The wins and losses didn't decide his fate.His stupidity did.

[trueblackcat27]

calipari is wayyy better gillispie sucks donkeys balls

[Buckmizer]

That 37 seconds sums up everything about why he is no longer coaching at Kentucky.

[volfano7]

Great comment.

[rjpolk]

i am gunna miss the half time interview... always made me laugh even when we were losing

[ufhater21]

Exactly he did things his way and nobody wanted to adjust, its not so much that he didnt want to adjust to the way UK wanted things done. Too bad he wasnt given another chance, but Barnhart was given a 2nd chance to make a good hire.

[misswildcat30]

I liked Billy G. I liked that fact that he wasn't about kissing ass. I think that is what made him such a target.

[KentuckyWildcats34]

I loved Billy G, he was cool he had no favorites, and if you pissed him off he would tell you off, I think he would have done better given a little more time, but we have John Calipari now so ROCK ON.

[planetrob555]

Even though I don't like Billy G and I'm glad he is gone, I liked his response to this reporter.

[Threestroker]

Unfortunately UK's Success seemed to ride on Meeks this year. I saw him live at the ND game for the NIT. He was unselfish and tried to get his teammates involved, but the talent was not there this year.

[thefreak985]

Yea, but Gillespie hate Jodie's success

Now that the reports are out that he told Jodie to quit shooting, even during the Tennessee game and told him he should quit and threatened to kick him off the team after the ND loss wednesday

[KentuckyWildcats34]

Well sometimes Jodie did take really low percentage 3's so I can see where he was coming from and besides how do I know this is not just another dead lie rumor.

[OnlineRemo]

Perfect response to a stupid question and you can not blame Gillispie for telling her so after the thousands of dumbass comments and questions he had to listen to from KU alumni and fans up to that point. The only good thing is that he will probably be coaching at Georgia next year and kicking KU's butt (along with half of the conference).

[jsteinlage]

Shows what you know. KU=Kansas

[KentuckyWildcats34]

you mean UK right?

[KentuckyWildcats34]

funny beacuse I thought KU was in the Big 12, so is georgia in the big 12 too now.

[ukcatsfan96]

I believe Barnhart and Todd sould have given him another year, and about the video I 100% agree with him! Jodie Meeks is a great player, yes, but he is not the only person on the team! There are other members on the team. I feel really bad for Gillispie and wish him the best!

[TwinLocusts]

Why isn't she at home cooking pie?

[SerpentSeedHasWon]

Women belong in the military.

[tpaln]

he merely told her that that was a really bad question but other wise answered her question and her follow up question

[glaked23]

There is no problem with this IMO.  If women want to cover College men's Basketball then they need be treated like men not a woman amongst men

[roman61]

Billy better have his resume ready. I hope this smug little prick enjoys coaching at East Bummfck State in his next job.

[Chocktastik]

She's got nothing on Erin Andrews....I would be mad too. Bring on the blonde

[redbeakman]

Drunk Billy and UK fans deserve one another.

[Conservativepacheat]

i hope he's gone, who wants a 2a coach at the best school in the world? makes no cents

[GatorsLaughAtVols]

He's the best coach of all time!! KY...jelly...was smart to hire him!

[hogglife34]

Long Live KY

[seemeinHD]

DUI got caught drinking with ramel bradley while he was a senior last year... tisk tisk silly redneck i guess thats what you'd expect from a school with a hick tradition like kentsucky.

[kyboy13]

you know nothing about kentucky.

[wildcat1171]

4 real you know nothing! KENTUCKY is the best basketball program in the ncaa divison 1 basketball. Kentucky has more NCAA titles than you can count on one hand! Kentucky has more SEC tournament titles than most sec teams comined. Also Kentucky is the most winningest program in NCAA division 1 history! So read up on your facts you idiot! If you think Kentucky Basketball sucks than you suck! And by the way NOT EVERYONE IN KENTUCKY ARE REDNECKS!!!!!!!!!

[cje8433]

The funny thing is that Meeks NEVER got going in the second half, and he pretty much was Kentucky this year, as they ended up losing to Ole Miss by double-digits. This guy is a freakin' joke of a coach! Side line reporters know more than him about basketball. She'll probably be covering NCAA Tournament games though, so Billy won't have to worry about seeing her again. Good luck in the NIT losers!

[radio187]

BCG is proof that the grass is not always greener--or bluer--on the other side of the fence. Dude was king in College Station, now he's snapping at sideline reporters like a punk. UK is a tougher place to coach than College Station, especially with Pitino and Cal kicking his ass for recruits all over the Midwest.

[jasonlorimac]

His interviews are better than his coaching.

[blondekaylee22]

FIRE Billy G ASAP!!!!!! kentucky is the greatest basketball team in history,  and Billy G is bringing uk basketball down!!!!!

[wildcat1171]

give him some time. he has to get tubby smiths trash out first. just give him some time and let him recruit. it will be alright!

[jbmorr03]

Will Scott: 4.0

Billy Gillespie: 0.8

[PhiPhan5648]

I'm not getting involved in the shit be spat out by the people having a flame war before me. Something about Kentuckey being racist because they didn't vote for Barack Obama, and low IQ and such... just a bunch of stupidity on all parties involved.

But anyways... I really don't see why this Coaches comment is so bad, it was a valid point.

[bigtcrace22]

who gives a fuck about obama its kentucky basketball its worried about in this video

[bigtcrace22]

wth that wasnt bad i dont see why reporters have to blow everything up!!!!!!

[jasonlorimac]

He's killing our program. I though we upgraded in coaching, BG= losing to turds and playing mind games with the kids.

Tubby has taken an 8 win team. His first season won over 20 games. This season he's like 17-3 top25.

HMMMMMMMMMM!

I think the better coach is in MINNESOTA.

[Jointfitter]

Great comment GDK1!

[ckak03]

As long as everyone is aware that Louisville really isn't a part of the wack state known as Kentucky haha

[GDK1]

Kentucky (collectively) voted AGAINST Obama in the Election but is standing there with its moonshine jug stuck out waiting for him to provide federal aid in the form of a state of emergency declaration after an "ice storm' kicked their ass.

I knew it was gonna happen. I just thought it would be the usual flooding that washes their backwood shacks down "cricks" every year.

Probably won't even so much as mumble "much obliged" with their toothless selves.

[shitearl88]

Suck wit.

[sixtycent08]

the STEROTYPES these days. do you know what that word means? or is that too big of a word for you? dumbass!

[coldrisk]

Well if Kentucky doesn't deserve help for not voting for Obama as a whole then maybe they should refuse our tax dollars.

[GDK1]

No problem. What's $73 dollars in taxes from Kentucky going to do against Bush's TRILLION dollar deficit?

Answer: Kentucky's collective I.Q........NOTHING.

[SGCrashSillies]

i agree !!! no only do kentucky but as do many states ! racist usa !!! only one state vote in BARRACK OBAMA because he is 'black man' , is so sad...

[RapscallionStallion]

SGCrash, are you dumb? We (kentucky) are racist for not voting for Obama? That's the stupidest thing i ever heard. I guarantee you, more people voted FOR him because he was black, than voted AGAINST him because he was black. It also helps that he is the MOST UNQUALIFIED PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME. You voted for him cause he was black. I voted for McCain because he is worthy of becoming president. What has Obama done to prove he's worthy except saying, "We need change," and being black? NOTHING!

[SGCrashSillies]

'MOST UNQUALIFIED PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME' ,this is only because he is of a black color ! in BRASIL we have many presidents 'rainbow' of color , USA are not 'revolving door' of the world !!!

[gunloc26]

SGCrashSillies, you're a fucking moron! If you didn't know, you're commenting on a basketball clip, not a political clip. And as for the "not" voting for the black candidate because of his skin color, so what!!! As an American I'm FREE to vote for who I ever I want to, for any reason. Get the fuck over it!

[SGCrashSillies]

as is same in basketball as politics ? many AMERICANS see the same intellectual in both , how so are different are they ? MAY some day USA experiencing the best of two worlds , be less dramatic in your fighting !!

[1soccerworld]

What did your comment have to do with the video? It's about basketball, not how Kentucky voted in the election. You idiot.

[duckboy4444]

what a fucking tool. he totally misunderstood that question. but still hes a fuckin tool.

[duncan36]

Symptoms of NPD: 1. has a grandiose sense of self-importance

 2. is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love 3. believes that he or she is "special" and unique 4. requires excessive admiration 5. has a sense of entitlement 6. is interpersonally exploitative 7. lacks empathy 8. is often envious of others or believes others are envious of him or her 9. shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

[duncan36]

He's a control freak, commonly called narcissistic personality disorder. Its so bad he's demeaning national media over a harmless question just because its not asked how he'd like it. Thats also why he demeans and mistreats his players because they never play like he thinks they should. Having this creates stress, its very tiring. Thats why he drinks heavily and look at this video he looks weak and headed for a breakdown.

[wiles911]

Another example why chicks should not be on the sidelines doing interviews.

[krick1030]

BG: "The rims were too tight, the ball was under inflated, the lights were too dim".

LOL

At least we don't have to hear the Cats fans whine about not being ranked.

[irisheyes4u2]

He should have slapped that stupid cumwhore. GO CATS!!!! GO BILLY!

[uurrnn]

That SEC is tough.. >_>

[sturttv]

What an ass. Pure Gillespie.

[brostyn]

HAHA!

Why'd the lose coach? Cuz Meeks was shutdown.

Does that make Meeks > UK? Probably.

[aroUofLcards3030]

What a piece of crap

[AllCityUnit]

He needs to be fired!  BCG must GO!!!

[krick1030]

It's a little early to be talking about next year isn't it? BG is a douche. UK sucks. SEC sucks.

[adroodown]

the cards will get pounced on next year. mark it down. it's not going to be a buzzer beating either. 20+ point win for the cats. we have class acts coming back plus hood orton.  and it's at rupp.

[aschill73]

Based on ???????????? Lots o talk, no walk!

[adroodown]

nice rhyme.

[airrboii]

it didn't matter last year when it was at rupp and we beat your ass by 20+ points.

fuck your freshman, they suck.

see if jennings doesnt take e5's spot at the 4 and dominate.

that man has potential.

[breckcard]

You might want to make sure Patterson/Meeks return before making any bold predictions. If they jump, I guess the new leader will be Harrelson!

[sportsxguy22]

haha dont count on it.

GO CARDS!

[aschill73]

BCG needs a little more polish. Not a great question considering they had a lead at halftime on the road, but incredibly inappropriate attitude on the answer. He needs to represent better. Less a-hole, more diplomat

[Hambone7217]

he's just telling it like it is.

Gotta respect a man who can do that on National Television!

[rbdvs]

Billy is a very intense coach. He has work to do at halftime. Why waste any coach's time at halftime for questions that no one cares about anyway.

[vtkwe]

What a douche

[breckcard]

UK is a one-trick pony!

[mphdtd]

that it took your team a last second, ridiculous shot to beat. With the amount of talent your team has, Pitino must really have lost it to let such a terrible team take you to the wire like that.

[breckcard]

UL is good enough to let Meeks and Patterson have good games, and still beat them. To beat good teams it takes 5 players contributing, not 2. Ole Miss stopped Meeks and won because the other UK players didn't know how to react.

Maybe she should have asked Coach G the question after the game!!!!!!!!1

[mphdtd]

I thought UK was a one trick pony? Now you are talking about two guys.

Does it bother you at all that PItino accomplished so much more in less time at UK than he has at UL?

[breckcard]

2 guys is all UK has. Patterson/Meeks, there is no denying that. They are a one-trick pony because they don't know how to get the ball to Patterson...and rely on Meeks. You can beat all the SEC teams you want with 2 good players, but UK will not beat GOOD teams unless others step up. And that is the coaches fault for not developing those other players.

[adroodown]

patterson gets his points and rebounds. averaging 18 points per game is pretty tricky. i'd say we're more of a 2.5 trick pony. sorry if the fraction gives you a headache.

[redbeakman]

It took your team a 7 point comeback in 16 seconds to keep from being run off the floor by 10+ points! Which is more improbable, going on a 7-0 run within 20 seconds or hitting a three pointer as time is winding down? UK is a pretender in the same vein as Notre Dame. You can only ride one horse so far.

[airrboii]

Notre Dame would manhandle UK.

They have more of a supporting cast than UK does.

They have PP and Meeks, no bench, no starting role players. Nothing.

[adroodown]

patterson

[slkatz]

It was a very basic question, and that 'tard couldn't answer it. And he's an ass.

[Stillertime55]

What a douchebag

[country526911]

Prick!

[paullybizzle]

hes a dick

[stapler15]

What a jack@ss!
