Well, it sure has been a crazy week around here in the bluegrass state. Got through the latest set of block exams, UK has hired a coach, and the Mr. Pharm D pageant finished without too much of a fiasco. Here's what is on my plate right now.

Who is this man? Hopefully it's the man that will lead UK back to the position where it belongs atop the world of college basketball. Here at derekaburden.blogspot.com we are very pleased with the hire. Earlier it was reported that Mr. Gillespie was out of the running for the job after agreeing in principle to a contract extension with Texas A & M. As it turns out, he delayed signing the contract just in case this situation arose where it would be possible for him to come to UK. Many stories report that Billy G is a man completely obsessed with his job and a great X's and O's guy. Not only that, he is also a tireless recruiter. He was integral in recruiting the big names that lead Illinois to the national championship game against North Carolina in 2005. This guy is truly "married to his job" as his wife divorced him because he obssessed over his job too much.


- Who are these two men? I can tell you right now. Public enemies #1 and #2 in Lexington. Rember to wear your helmet next time you roll in to Rupp fellas, beacuse Kentucky fans don't take kindly to being mocked (in Dickie V's case) or strung along and used to get a raise from your employer (in Billy D's case). I used to love Dickie V and his passion for the game of college basketball, but he just went off the deep end on College GameDay. And Billy, no one likes you and when the 'Cats house you in Rupp next year with the next great college basketball coach, you are gonna wish you didn't string Kentucky along.
- Everyone is excited for the new coach and I will probably be attending the pep rally later in the day, but that is not the only thing going on right now. Last night was the Mr. Pharm D pageant and I was selected as Mr. Congeniality. Overall it was a great time and I just made a big idiot of myself througout the evenin' (what else is new)
- Lindsay Ivey decided to dedicate her latest blog post entirely to mocking me. You can view it at http://lindsayivey.blogspot.com. Despite what she says, I AM funny, just most of my jokes involve her. Despite being the target of most of my jokes, she still puts up with me most of the time.
- In case you forgot, no one likes Sam Bright
- It is reported that Billy Gillespie was option C for UK, T-money would have reported that we hired option E.
- Sorry about the short post, I've gotta get to the pep rally. Expect another post this weekend.
