Excitement for Razorback basketball can be revived

FAYETTEVILLE — The beauty of sports is they are unscripted. Anything can happen in any sport on any given day.

That’s why we watch and why we tend to get wrapped up in the stories and fortunes of our favorite team or players. Maybe it partly explains why the remarkable comeback by Tiger Woods from a broken life and a broken body, culminating in his scintillating victory at The Masters last Sunday, captured the hearts and minds of millions of Americans, including many who don’t even play golf.

But this column today isn’t about the resurgence of a fallen sports icon; it’s about the next chapter of Arkansas basketball, one yet to be written by a new coach but one in which we will hopefully witness a resurgent and energized basketball program reach its potential for Razorback fans everywhere.
