Musselman's results win over Walker

FAYETTEVILLE -- Darrell Walker ran into Eric Musselman outside of the coaches' hotel at the Final Four on Saturday night in Minneapolis.

Walker, a former University of Arkansas All-American guard who now coaches the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Trojans, expressed his surprise at Musselman not wearing a shirt with a Razorbacks logo.

"I just told him, 'I thought you'd have 'Pig Sooey' on by now,' " Walker said. "He started laughing and I started laughing."

Walker turned out to be right on target.

Arkansas Athletic Director Hunter Yurachek said Monday that he offered Musselman -- Nevada's coach the previous four seasons -- the Razorbacks' coaching job Friday and the deal was finalized Saturday.
