Quick read of the UK $2.8 million settlement agreement with Billy Gillispie brought me to my favorite passage.
It’s No. 8, Non-Disparagement, where Gillispie agrees not to say anything public or private that disparages the university, or Lee Todd, or Mitch Barnhart.
Wonder how this will affect the book Gillispie was apparently writing with Steve Richardson?
Seems like that might take some of the “must-read” draw out of it, don’t you think?
By the way, UK agrees not to say bad things about Billy G., as well.

Don’t some people sugarcoat their books anyway and can up some of the stories, so why not! He can just say whatever for everything before before and after UK. Gillispie could just sugarcoat what he says about two season
I agree. And Billy is still probably going to write a book. If he does, I hope it’s about bouncing back.
