I don't mind with Gillispie....he's a little unorthodox to say the least though. I still can't figure out his substitution patterns. It gets frustrating because it seems he refuses to make in game adjustments. UK lives and dies by man to man defense.....mostly died lately. No matter the foul situation, the injury situation, or how bad we're getting torched he stays in man to man.
As for his drinking- he had a DUI back in the day and he's regularly seen out pounding the bourbons at a couple local hot spots. Hell, I say whatever it takes....nothing wrong with a little early morning bourbon in my opinion.
How healthy Patterson is in his return is the big thing. Without him UK has no inside game and UK will need 50 out of Meeks to win.
