FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas basketball team made sure it christened Nolan Richardson Court with a victory.
The Razorbacks beat the University of Arkansas at Little Rock 79-64 on Sunday in an exhibition game in Walton Arena before an announced crowd of 7,384.
Before tipoff, the signature of Richardson -- complete with the old-school slobbering Hog -- was unveiled on both sides of the court in honor of the coach who led the Razorbacks to a school-record 389 victories and three Final Four appearances in 17 seasons, including the 1994 national championship.
About 40 of Richardson's former players, assistant coaches and staff members joined him on the court.
