At halftime of Wednesday’s contest between Mizzou and Arkansas, the Razorbacks honored one of their vaunted squads from the Nolan Richardson era. The 1989-1990 Razorbacks, who won the Southwest Conference and made the Final Four, took center court at their old stomping grounds.
Most players, including leading scorer Todd Day, made the trip to Fayetteville. Mike Anderson, who was a longtime assistant coach under Richardson at UA, received a raucous applause from the home crowd. But the crescendo didn’t come until the camera panned to Richardson, who really got the UA faithful loud and on their feet.
