re: Arkansas Basketball Quad Breakdown

Yes Frank did hire Altman. It was agreed that Altman would bring his academic staff to help with the problems with academics from the Heath era. But John White told him no.

Altman was pretty upset because Frank said yes and White said no. So I think since he couldn't bring his staff here and help with the academics then he had no reason to be here.

Altman should have been given what he needed here. No way a coach leaves like that unless something big happened. He was a solid coach and he would have been a lot better than Pelphrey. But they screwed up the most Arkansas way possible. It was all over the news, very embarrassing.

Frank did his job but John White screwed it and hired a search committee. So we hired our Chad Morris for basketball.

John White was the chancellor and interfered with athletics. Frank was pretty much neutered when John White was hired in the late 90s.
