John Brady came in last year expecting Arkansas State to compete for Sun Belt Conference championships, but even Brady has to be a little surprised where the Red Wolves stand going into tonight's game with UALR at the Jack Stephens Center... read more >
Panicky Hog fans need to quit fretting that Bobby Petrino's newest signing class is not up to snuff. The past decade saw a series of disappointing classes, and nothing can measure down to the 1970 disaster... read more >
Maybe we should have followed the lead of the Arkansas Razorback message board posters and the callers to the sports talk shows and realized Saturday's 31-point loss at Lexington was not a measure of how good Kentucky is, but how far the Razorback program has fallen under John Pelphrey and how inept he surely must be as a coach, as has been the refrain... read more >
An Arkansas high school basketball official was only hearing thanks - not the usual jeers and yells - for being where he was and what he did on Tuesday night... read more >
We still remember the first night we saw Scottie Pippen, not as a 6-foot-7 superstar with the Chicago Bulls or as a man-among-boys as a senior at Central Arkansas, but as the "other guard" in Hamburg High's backcourt... read more >
It's basketball season, and all anybody wants to talk about these days is football: Ryan Mallett's return, recruiting, coaching changes, recruiting, what's going on at Tennessee (football, not Bruce Pearl's department of correction)... read more >
Jerry Tarkanian warned the audience at the Downtown Tip Off Club Monday not to get him started on his dislike for the NCAA, but everyone knew that was like putting a match to a handy trail of gunpowder that led to the keg. It was too easy to pass up igniting it... read more >
I wondered why Ryan Mallett and the University of Arkansas needed to do anything more than send out a press release that he was returning? I soon found out Friday afternoon. Mallett scored big points on ESPN... read more >
I'm not saying No. 2 Texas will pull the upset against No. 1 Alabama, but the intangibles are all on the Longhorns' side in tonight's Bowl Championship Series national title game in Pasadena, Calif... read more >
How bad have the Hogs been for two months. This should say it all: Courtney Fortson, suddenly back after missing 14 games on an indefinite suspension, was good enough to start. He was good enough to almost singlehandedly give Arkansas a fighting chance against a team that the ESPN experts believe has a chance to win the national title in April... read more >
Place former coach and current ESPN college basketball analyst Fran Fraschilla among the many experts in the business who would advise the University of Arkansas fans to stay behind their coach, John Pelphrey, while he rebuilds the program... read more >
In their football history the Arkansas Razorbacks lost three Liberty Bowls they probably deserved to win. Saturday, they won a Liberty Bowl they truly deserved to lose... read more >
Arkansas was able to put a powered sugar dusting on what had been a stale fruitcake of a nonconference season before Christmas. A 66-62 overtime win over Missouri State on Dec. 22 has had a nice carryover effect for his players, Razorback coach John Pelphrey said in North Little Rock on Tuesday... read more >
For Arkansas basketball these days, a win is cherished, even one coming against the dregs of the dreggy conferences, like the Southwestern Athletic Conference's Alabama State, or the lower majors like Stephen F. Austin. Ahead for Arkansas is a stretch of four solid teams who have a combined record of 39-2... read more >
Mike Anderson may be almost eight years removed from coaching in Arkansas, but the state still has a special place in his heart, and the good memories abound... read more >
The Memphis basketball program and its fans had such a good time two years ago at what was then Alltel Arena in North Little Rock, Tigers coach John Calipari did almost the unthinkable and scheduled a home-and-home series with mid-major UALR... read more >
Alabama takes its 13-0 record into the Bowl Championship Series national title game on Jan. 7 against 13-0 and No. 2 Texas. And Kirby Smart, the Crimson Tide's defensive coordinator, heads back home with the Broyles Award as the nation's top assistant coach... read more >
The problem with Arkansas major college basketball - we're talking the entire state, not just the Razorbacks - was made obvious in one night. And what served to easily sum up the difference Dec. 2 in UALR's 13-point loss at home to Missouri State could apply to Arkansas' 20-point loss at Oklahoma or Arkansas State's 22-point home court loss to Ole Miss... read more >
A basketball fan in Arkansas could stay home Wednesday night and do nothing, which is what we gather some are wont to do now. But if that fan is in Little Rock or Jonesboro, some options to Hawgball are available... read more >
Arkansas' previous visits to the Liberty Bowl in Memphis have come before or just after Christmas during the holiday bowl games. This one will fall somewhat in the middle of the big games, on Saturday, Jan. 2, which should make it a worthwhile game for Bobby Petrino's program, even if the trip is short... read more >
