Hogs leave impression on veteran coach Crean

FAYETTEVILLE — Even though Tuesday's crowd was not like the ones of old at Bud Walton Arena, Georgia coach Tom Crean left with the impression of being overwhelmed.

Arkansas forced 16 turnovers in a 70-60 win over the Bulldogs. The trip was the first to Fayetteville for Crean, a former head coach at Marquette and Indiana, and 10-year Division I assistant.

“There are a lot of good defenses in the league and they are good, too,” Crean said of the Razorbacks. “They bring a lot of pressure to the game and they got us some, made a couple of bad passes and a couple of guys were extremely soft with the basketball, which you cannot do against them.
