re: An oral history of Billy Gillispie's time at Kentucky ft. a TD HOFer

One could make the argument that at Kentucky he ran into the buzzsaw of dudes who had been told how great they were their whole lives and didn't care to get worked hard Bear Bryant style while at A&M he mostly had guys that weren't that highly touted and knew they had to work their asses off to succeed.

Someone needs to reexamine those Kentucky rosters

Plus it mentions it in the article if you actually read it that Billy's staff at A&M was a big part of how he was able to get away with it there.
