He's too busy for a wife. Ask anyone who knows him and they'll confirm this. The guy works his butt off, almost as much as Fran does.

this topic has discussed recently. Not married, but not on the market.

Be careful - you'll get this thread locked too.

He was at the Rangers-Sox game tonight...sitting in section 18.

Jet-setting Coach - I hear he was sitting behind Van Grumpy at Thursday nite's Rockets-Mavs game

Pretty impressive that some class of 05 kid is such an insider that he knows how many hrs per week both Fran and Gillispie work.

you don't need to be an "insider" to know this - just need to read the volumes of articles that have been written about each.

leftover, actually it'd make perfect sense for a student to know this. if you live in the same community and have any consistent interaction within the Adept, then you probably do have an idea of the hours these coaches pour in.

but great idea trying to uproot any credibility the poster may have by claiming only big time supports have inside connections. well played....

Nice response.

You people are aware that you aren't close, personal friends with BCG and Fran because they coach your favorite teams, right?

I would guess that BG works more hours than Coach Fran. His work ethic is legendary but certainly Fran is no slouch either. I just think BG has no time for a wife or anything else but hoops at this point.

My guess is that the only way either of them could work more productive hours in a day is if there were more hours in a day.

Gig 'em, FAST FRED '65.

Before the world wide web, village idiots usually stayed in their own village.

Why is someone's "work ethic" connected with how many hours the person works? Is that necessarily a good "ethic"? Commenting on coaching in general, does anyone know any D1 football or basketball examples of coaches who are highly successful, and legendary for NOT working extremely long hours? Just curious.

good Ol coach G likes to take pics with the nice looking dancers on the basketball court. no need to be married if ur him

That's a good point. One example I can think of is Bobby Bowden. I think nowadays he lets his assistants do most of the work, and he just recruits and shows up on gameday. I might be simplifying his role a little bit, but I think that's it in a nutshell.

I'm Proud of Billy Clyde ...

Apparently Bob Stoops has his coaches home for dinner with their familis almost every night. SI did an article about them doing it different and winning.
