More on UK basketball

The Courier Journal reported yesterday that Stacey Webster is expected to be named an assistant coach on Billy Gillespie's staff.

Stacey Webster was an assistant at Illinois but has officially resigned that position. Stacey played basketball for the University of Wisconsin and has also been an assistant coach at Purdue and Ball State. Stacey has the reputation for being a good recruiter, especially around the midwest and specifically in the Chicago area.

It was also recently reported that Alvin Brooks will join Gillespie's staff. There has been no official announcement on Brooks, but Brooks was on Gillespie's staff at Texas A & M. Alvin was seen last week at UK's photo day so it does appear that he will be around in some capacity.

It being reported that Brooks will probably be hired as an office administrator while Webster will be a basketball assistant.
