What are the odds some WBB game is going to cut into it because of a 22-21 3OT "thriller"?

Back to back Elite 8's seems pretty relevant to me.


Arkansas has made more Elite 8's in the last 2 years than Bama has in their entire basketball history.

The way Richardson's time at Arkansas ended was some weird shite. He pissed Broyals off and that was it.

It was sour from the beginning when the daughter of Nolan was dying of cancer and Nolan was struggling in his early years with frustration from the fans.

Nolan wanted more leniency considering the health of his daughter and patience with the rebuild.

Nolan believed that Frank didn't care about his needs but instead wanted to know why is the rebuild taking so long?

Nolan was very angry but it also could be an issue of lack of communication between both parties.

Frank Broyles has not been known to talk with personal issues back when he was the head coach. He left the assistants to those problems. That didn't change when he became the AD back in the mid 70s.

Nolan was the opposite. Very outspoken and was an angry individual who used it in his coaching.

Both had different personalities and both clashed for 17 years. Frank didn't like him because he couldn't micromanage him like other coaches. Nolan didn't like him because he believed he was treated poorly when his daughter was sick.

Frank tried to fire him multiple times even when Nolan was winning big. Nolan refused to quit or take another Job but instead did his best to make it hard on Frank.


Nolan was on national TV. Goes on a rant that was racial and demanding everyone that he didn't come on a ship and expects to be treated better than that.

A few days later Nolan was fired in March 2002. Nolan sued Frank Broyles and the university of Arkansas for racial discrimination.

A highly touted recruiting class was nuked. Bill Self who was rumored being an interest to the Arkansas job wasn't hired and instead Stan Heath with one year of head coaching experience took the job.

When the smoke cleared, the basketball program went from a powerhouse to the outhouse in one year. The struggle to let go of the past and find a new identity was going on for years until Muss was hired.

Well many that is detailed came from the book 40 minutes of hell the Nolan Richardson story.

So it is a one sided story from his POV but it would be nice if Frank had spoken up and told his side of the story but he remained silent.

Exactly. We’ll never know the real story.

Passing his observations or anyone else’s off as facts is not valid information.



All I know is what I heard. Frank offered Nolan time off to spend with his daughter with no risk of losing his job. His daughter wanted him to continue coaching so that’s what he did.

I could write a bit more but folks on here don’t care for long winded shite….

I agree. You had some colorful coaches and very good teams across the league. Kentucky and Arkansas were the lead dogs, but the rest of the pack was pretty good too.

Rick Pitino style was called up tempo and arkansas was called street ball.

Its the same thing but why are we calling it 2 different things.

Great team. Inside power. 8 players hitting over 40 percent from three. Great depth and leadership. Scored off the break or in the half court game. You don’t see teams like this very often. Had everything.
