Arkansas is simply saying we're not playing in the NIT because we can't guarantee the ticket's required to be sold to have a home game, and also is saying we're not about to be sent to Alltel Arena to play UALR.

If Arkansas and UALR played at Alltel, I guarantee more than 10,000 seats would be sold.

3-31 road record could have been a major factor is this decison besides the team quitting on Heath.

drake that game would have sold out no matter which arena they played in.  With the 3 or 4,000 that UALR brings to some of their games the Hog fans would have filled in the rest of the seats.  That's not the reason we pulled out even if that's what they are saying.  They are protecting Heath.  IF he had lost to UALR then he'd be out.  Now he doesn't have to worry about that.  He does have to worry about winning next year though.  He'll be gone if we don't go to the tourney.

The University of Arkansas has just painted a yellow stripe down their back.

Coaching at the University of Arkansas in 2005 is the BEST job in America, hands down.
