There’s a certain kind of player and coach in sports that everybody absolutely despises – unless he’s on your team. Then you love him.
Arkansas basketball fans have the self-awareness to recognize that this was the case during Eric Musselman’s tenure in Fayetteville. A nearly 60-year-old man leaping onto the scorers’ table after upsetting a No. 1 seed, ripping his shirt off and waving it in the air while yelling sounds really off-putting – as it was for most college basketball fans after Arkansas upset Kansas in 2022. But for Razorback fans, it was an incredible moment that they’ll savor for a long time.
