Steve Atwater, a former NFL safety and Arkansas Razorback, returned to Arkansas on Monday to a standing ovation at the Little Rock Touchdown Club at the Embassy Suites in Little Rock.
Several members of the crowd remembered Atwater, 52, as one of the top defensive players in University of Arkansas history, as he recorded 14 interceptions in his college career (1985-1988).
As a former Razorback, Atwater was asked what he thinks needs to change with the Arkansas program under first-year Coach Chad Morris. He said they need players who believe in Morris' system.
"You have to have some great players," Atwater said.
