FAYETTEVILLE — One thing is certain about this season: Arkansas basketball will draw even more eyes than usual thanks to new head coach John Calipari.
With the extra attention also comes additional scrutiny, even if the No. 18 Razorbacks are just two games into their 2024-25 campaign. They’re getting a taste of that already ahead of their third game, which is against Troy and set for a 7 p.m. CT tip Wednesday on SEC Network-Plus.
Arkansas is coming off a five-point loss to now-No. 12 Baylor at a neutral site. Considering they’ve proven to be obsessed with their former coach, it’s not surprising that some Kentucky basketball fans have gloated in the result and already pointed out the negatives that apparently drove them crazy during Calipari’s tenure in Lexington.
