Billy Gillispie resigns as Texas Tech basketball coach
They watched a hard newbie in which Texas Tech won only one Big 12 game. Now fans won't get the opportunity to determine a possible turnaround much like what the 52-year-old coach had done at UTEP and Texas A a West Texas native, resigned on Thursday, citing health concerns.
''Billy will quickly focus on his health, and that we wish him a complete recovery,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],'' athletic director Kirby Hocutt said inside a news release. ''We are proud of the young men that he has brought to this campus. Billy's decision allows him to focus on his well-being and permits us to turn our focus on preparations for the upcoming season.''
Gillispie will be paid the remainder of this contract year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], about seven-months' worth, or about $467,000. Chris Walker, who took over day-to-day operations, will remain for the reason that position until an interim head coach is chosen.
Gillispie's resignation letter said he appreciated the chance to coach the Red Raiders,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but he required to tend to his health,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], officials said.
The move came just one month after the school announced it was considering allegations of player mistreatment last fall through the veteran coach a sensitive topic at Texas Tech,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], because of the 2009 firing of football coach Mike Leach after claims that he mistreated a person struggling with a concussion.
Hocutt, who declined to make further comment Thursday, earlier this year known as the allegations ''very troubling.''
In January, the college reprimanded Gillispie and assistant coach Brooks Jennings after a review found they had exceeded practice-time limits in 2011. The school reported the secondary violation towards the NCAA and penalized itself by reduction of the team's practice time by about 12 hours.
Twice inside a 10-day span this past month,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 911 calls were made from Gillispie's home. The very first, on Aug. 31, came hours before he ended up being to meet with Hocutt and resulted in a six-day stay in a Lubbock hospital. Both men never met to discuss the allegations.
Gillispie wasn't taken to the hospital after the second ask Sept. 10. However the overnight, he left for that Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., where he said he got treatment for kidney problems and abnormal headaches. Doctors there told him to avoid stress for 30 days.
Gillispie succeeded Pat Knight, who went 50-61 in his three-plus years. Knight had absorbed after his father resigned in February 2008.
5 years ago, Gillispie was among the hottest names within the college game and had reached a pinnacle: coaching at perennial powerhouse Kentucky.
That peak lasted just two years. He was fired from Kentucky last year after going 40-27 in 2 seasons, and also the Wildcats missed the NCAA tournament for the first time in 17 years. When he returned to coaching at Texas Tech two years later, he came cheap. He went from a yearly salary at Kentucky of $2.3 million to $800,000 annually at Texas Tech,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], signing a five-year contract to succeed Pat Knight.
In late 2009, Gillispie and Kentucky settled lawsuits against each other, with the former Wildcats coach getting about $3 million with no admission of wrongdoing from the school. Six months after his firing, Gillispie sought treatment at John Lucas' substance-abuse enter in Houston following his third arrest for drunken driving in Ten years.
Gillispie's first two years like a college head coach were at UTEP within the Western Athletic Conference. He earned headlines there for the biggest turnaround in basketball history, using the Miners from 6-24 in 2002-03 to 24-8 the year after.
The conference named him Coach of the Year in 2004,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the same year he was a finalist for that Naismith Coach of the season the very first of 3 times he earned the final cut. He ended up being an adept recruiter, and he stayed in close connection with lots of Texas high school coaches to stay in the loop about the state's talent.
He later went to Texas A going for a downtrodden program and leading the Aggies to three consecutive 20-win seasons after they went winless in Big 12 play the year before he arrived. At the end of Gillispie's newbie with the Aggies in 2005,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he was named the AP's Big 12 Coach of the season.
It was the NIT after his first season and the NCAA tournament after the next two getting the Aggies to the Sweet 16 in 2007. But Kentucky came courting, and two weeks after his final game with the Aggies, a 65-64 loss to Memphis in the NCAA regional semifinals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he left Texas for that Bluegrass State.
Gillispie is probably the basketball coaches who've lost quite a lot of money because of investments with David Salinas, who committed suicide this past year as federal investigators probed his control over college coaches' money.
Baylor's Scott Drew, former Arizona coach Lute Olson, former Utah coach Ray Giacoletti now an assistant at Gonzaga and Baylor football coach Art Briles, who previously coached at Houston, also invested.
