First, congratulations to Nolan Richardson, who the University of Arkansas System board of trustees voted to name the basketball court in Bud Walton Arena. There will be detractors as this is a first — a former coach being honored after suing the school.
It is done, should be accepted and time to move on. It was impressive the way Richardson handled the firing of Mike Anderson, saying he was sad, but he understood the monster had to be fed. The monster Richardson created with three trips to the Final Four, a national championship and a 26-12 record in NCAA play.
