Ok, I have spent the past several hours scouring messge boards and insider sites across the SEC, I have also been talking to one of the administrators at Rivals.com and here is a really big twist into the entire Billy G saga.

Kentucky has informed Billy that he is not going to be the coach at Kentucky next season, he has packed his things along with his assistant coaches and the players have been informed by Mitch Barnhart and Billy Gillispie.

Billy has told his assistants that he wants to remain in the SEC and he wants them to remain with him, him remaining in the SEC would require him to contact either Alabama or Georgia about their head coaching positions and the Alabama job has drew his attention. The problem is that Kentucky doesn't want Billy to remain in the SEC, due to fear of him winning with another program in the conference. Kentucky is trying to hold off on offically firing Gillispie until Alabama fills their head coaching position, because they don't feel he has a real intrest in Georgia.

Alabama as many of you know has offically offered their job to VCU head coach Anthony Grant, who as of yesterday was expected to accept the Alabama job on Monday. The problem with this is that Grant wants the chance to interview with the University of Kentucky, so he is not planning to accept the Alabama job until he gets his UK interview, this means the Alabama job remains open. Alabama has told all other possible canidates that they are no longer being considered, showing that Grant is their guy, they will not give up on him until he tells them he does not want the job.

So here is the situation:
-Kentucky wants the Alabama job filled before Gillispie is offically fired.
-Alabama has offered to Anthony Grant and has made him the guy, but he will not accept as of yet.
-Anthony Grant wants to interview with UK, but that can't be done until BCG is gone.

One of these sides have to give in, Kentucky has to either fire Gillispie giving him the chance to go to Bama, Alabama has to hire a different head coach and give up on Anthony Grant, or Grant has to give up on interviewing with Kentucky and fill the Alabama job.
