Billy Gillispie will not return for a third season as head coach of the University of Kentucky.  At least according to WHAS11 in Louisville. 

The station website reports that it's information comes from unnamed sources.

After WHAS11 broke broke the story last night Kentucky issued a statement saying Gillispie hasn't been fired, and no meetings or press conferences are scheduled to take place.

Kentucky finished the season with a 22-14 mark after losing to Notre Dame in the quarterfinals of the National Invitation Tournament.  Gillispie's total record with the Wildcats in two seasons is 40-27.

He is in the second year of a seven year contract that pays him about $2.3 million per year.
