Arkansas coach Eric Musselman wears his emotions on his sleeve at all times.
Rarely is there a moment when you don’t know exactly how he feels.
Less than five minutes after the No. 9 Razorbacks fell 90-87 to No. 10 Creighton in perhaps the best college basketball game of the early season, he let everyone tuned in to the Razorbacks’ radio broadcast know he felt like his group deserved to be in the Maui Invitational championship game.
Instead, Arkansas will play for third place late Wednesday night against San Diego State or Arizona.
“I’ve coached a lot of games, a lot of years, never seen anything like it,” Musselman told Arkansas play-by-play broadcaster Chuck Barrett following the loss, which dropped Arkansas to 4-1.
