Celebrating Our Greats

History and tradition are cornerstones of our program and help form the foundation for our success today and in the future. The University of Arkansas has a rich heritage of extraordinary student-athletes and coaches who helped build our program into what it is today.

It is imperative that we not only remember those men and women who put Razorback Athletics on the map, but also celebrate their legacy. In 2018-19, we welcomed back Coach Nolan Richardson and the 1994 NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship team on the 25th anniversary of that signature title. We also announced that Coach Richardson’s name will be on the court at Bud Walton Arena in time for the 2019-20 basketball season. His predecessor Coach Eddie Sutton will soon be honored with the naming of the men’s practice gymnasium in the Basketball Performance Center. 

We celebrated Sidney Moncrief’s induction into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame in Kansas City and dozens of former Razorbacks induction into the University of Arkansas Sports Hall of Honor, the Southwest Conference Hall of Fame and the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame. 

Finally, we bid adieu to Tusk IV as he finished his reign as our live mascot at the end of the 2018-19 year. As Tusk IV enjoys the fruits of retirement at his home on the Stokes Family Farm in Dardanelle, his son Tusk V is primed and ready to take over the family tradition beginning this fall.
