When Mike Anderson made a change in his coaching staff earlier this year - the first time he’s done so in basically a decade - he hired Arkansas legend Scotty Thurman and moved longtime assistant Matt Zimmerman into a Director of Operations role.
But that left Thurman’s radio analyst position open, so after a few months, the Hogs have filled it with none other than Zimmerman. Flat circle and what not.
Some fans tossed around names like former Hogs Blake Eddins and Pat Bradley, both of whom have done some broadcasting, but since both live in Little Rock, that would be a hard move to make with 30+ basketball games each year.
