Everybody loves to talk about the UNLV Runnin' Rebels and Michigan Fab Five and their impacts on sports and Hip-Hop culture, but I think it's high time we gave Norm Richardson and his Razorback squads from the 90s their flowers as well. Todd Day, Oliver Miller, Lee Mayberry, Scotty Thurman, Corliss Williamson, Al Dillard, etc. - them boys had style, swag and game and for hoop fans down South, at least, they had a huge impact on the culture too. I remember our high school hoops coach fashioned our team's run-n-gun style after "40 Minutes of Hell"!
I was in the Army stationed in Germany when this game was played. It came on at 12am. The game finished about two hours before we had to do PT. When we won that was one of the top five moments of my life.
I REMEMBER THIS LIKE YESTERDAY AND I’M AN LSU FAN SO I WAS DEFINITELY PULLING FOR ARKANSAS TO WIN IT ALL AS A SEC MEMBER.. ONE OF MY FAVORITE COLLEGE TEAMS OF ALL TIME!!
One of the greatest coaches and college basketball teams of all times. The University of Arkansas need to give Nolan Richardson a statue while he's still alive. A'ja Wilson has a statue at South Carolina and you mean to tell me she had a greater impact on the game the Nolan Richardson???
Pissed me off! That team might be the smartest team in Arkansas History. I have met Nolan and what an under rated man and coach! IMO he is greater than Thompson won with less talent than Thompson. Great great man! I met Scotty Thurman last year at the state volleyball tournament where his daughter played. She's the best player I have seen following my grand daughter around. I ran into Scotty in the hall and man maybe the nicest man I have ever met. I mean I don't hero worship and he noticed I had a Hog hat on and talked to me for 15 minutes and he's just about as good as it gets. And my grand daughters team VB had just upset his daughters team. Very impressive how he just mixed and talked to anybody and everyone that he ran into. I was just going to nod and say hi and he stopped me. I actually officiated Corliss son and ran into him a couple of times. And he also is just a down to earth guy.
