I am getting sick of this. Now the SA-Express is reporting that Billy G has "wants to keep open his options for the most tantalizing of current job openings — Kentucky." According to the story, an announcement was planned for today to announce the new contract but around 7pm they scrapped it.

[Update] What does not make sense to me is that the plan all along was for the Board of Regents to vote on Billy G's new contract on Friday, so why would there be an announcement today? I am pretty sure Brent Z (SA-Express beat reporter) made this "keep open his options"-crap up. After all, this is the same d-bag that took Billy's lack of comment as an indication that he wanted to coach Arkansas. How did that analysis work out for you Brent?

[Update] Brent Z has expanded his story from last night by cleverly adding "for now" to the original "Gillispie balks at A&M deal" headline. The unabridged version also claims that "Byrne insisted that Gillispie decide one way or another whether he wanted to accept the contract — or begin discussions with Arkansas." So with Arkansas window shut and no official acceptance Billy, must want the Kentucky job. I am getting this right Brent?
