Idea

I know they are keeping Wainright, but I think Depaul and Gillispie would be a great fit. He could build the program and he would be in the Big East to compete with the big boys.

If it is Donovan.... I expect Coach Les to be on the horn right away congratulating him and asking for a "buy" game in Lexington or a 2-for-1!

The buyout for Gillispie has been reported to be several million dollars. There have also been reports that the contract he worked under was never signed, however, I would guess Kentucky will buy him out rather than face a lawsuit. So Gillispie would not need to find work right away. My guess is he lays low for a year, then takes another high-profile job, ala Bob Huggins.
