Tarleton State's Gillispie reinstated after review

Tarleton State University has reinstated its men's basketball coach, Billy Gillispie, following an investigation into an anonymous complaint. Gillispie was placed on temporary administrative leave on Friday, but the university has now concluded its review and determined that he can resume his coaching duties. The details of the anonymous complaint and the investigation's findings have not been publicly disclosed. However, the university's decision to reinstate Gillispie suggests that the allegations against him were not substantiated or did not warrant disciplinary action. Gillispie has been the head coach of the Tarleton State men's basketball team since 2019. During his tenure, the team has seen success, including a conference championship and an appearance in the NCAA Division II tournament. The reinstatement of Gillispie allows the team to move forward and focus on the upcoming season, as they prepare to compete at the Division I level in the Western Athletic Conference.
