FAYETTEVILLE — There's a lot of talk about coaching trees. Discussion last August of the majestic and broad reach of the late Frank Broyles included a massive tree.
It was documented the weekend of his memorial service when coaches came from far and wide to celebrate Broyles' legacy in college football.
Some forget that his impact wasn't just coaching football. The Broyles reach stretched into athletic administration with Terry Don Phillips, the man who hired new Arkansas coach Chad Morris as an offensive coordinator at Clemson seven years ago. Phillips played for Broyles and later served as his top aide in the athletic department.
