When you have as bad of a 12 month stretch as the Arkansas Razorbacks and Mike Anderson have had, someone is going to pay the price. Say what you will about Anderson, but he held off on making any hard changes to his staff longer than most coaches are able to.
But these 5 years in Fayetteville for Coach Anderson have not lived up to the hype that fans had when he came in. And after going 16-16 in year 5, having an entire recruiting class disappear from campus, and missing out on huge in state recruits, we all knew that something had to change.
