Ave atque vale.

Farewell to the most famed member of our academic community.

[D]angerously myopic … self-aggrandizing … [a Mussolini] in wingtips …
“I’d wake up every day and be afraid,” [one of Billy Gillispie’s players] says… [A] lunatic who has them running the stadium steps, barking like a mad dog at the moonlight… Six months after being fired at Kentucky, he received his third DUI in a 10-year span.

Texas Tech. A community of scholars.

    Great article, but I bet SOS cringed at this mixed metaphor: “That family turned on him, another dagger in the downward spiral.”

    Good riddance indeed…until some other program hires him for more money than I’ve made in 13+ years of teaching.

    Joe – I didn’t even notice the spiraling dagger! I scan these news articles too fast. Thanks for noticing that gem.
