RIP Coach Broyles.

When the SEC network aired. I think his interview they did with him was the best thing I saw all day.

Frank Broyles was a great Razorback and a great Yellow Jacket. May he rest in peace.

What a blow for Arkansas, college football and the old Southwest Conference.

I had a friend who went to Arkansas who was working in a Fayetteville mall during an Arkansas home football game, and in strolls Frank Broyles.

The guy asked what's up? And Broyles told him his doctor told him to leave Arkansas games when he felt stressed, because of his heart condition.

The man WAS Arkansas football.
