On Frank Broyles....
The Good....
Number One....an athletic program that pays for itself....NO STATE FUNDS OR STUDENT FEES
The facilities, hiring Nolan Richardson (first black coach in the south), winning a share of the 1964 NC in football (our bama friends might disagree) but they changed the rule the next year and the funny thing is...we would have won it in 1965 if the rule hadn't been changed. We got screwed two times there.
Most important in mind....all the coaches that he produced...

The Bad....
Running off Holtz, Hatfield, and meddling with the program too much. Making the Little Rock donors mad by moving games back to Fayetteville. It needed to be done though.
The Ugly....
What just took place within the last year.
