Razorbacks yet to pack them in at Walton Arena

FAYETTEVILLE -- Southern Illinois University Coach Barry Hinson did some marketing on Arkansas' behalf after the Razorbacks beat his Salukis 90-65 on Monday night in Walton Arena.

It was the fourth time Hinson, 55, had bought a team to Arkansas and he sounded appalled the crowd didn't resemble what he remembered from previous visits with Oral Roberts in the 1997-98 season and Missouri State in the 2005-06 and 2007-08 seasons.

The announced crowd for Monday night's game was 4,270 in a building with a listed capacity of 19,200.

Hinson, in his postgame news conference, addressed Arkansas fans directly with several video cameras rolling, asking where to look into the cameras.
